NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Schlumberger Limited and its subsidiaries (“Schlumberger”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of Schlumberger management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement have been included in the accompanying unaudited financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013. The December 31, 2012 balance sheet information has been derived from the Schlumberger 2012 financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Schlumberger Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 31, 2013.

2. Charges and Credits

Schlumberger recorded the following charges and credits during the first three months of 2013 and 2012:

2013

Although the functional currency of Schlumberger’s operations in Venezuela is the US dollar, a portion of the transactions are denominated in local currency. In February 2013, Venezuela’s currency was devalued from the prior exchange rate of 4.3 Bolivar Fuertes per US dollar to 6.3 Bolivar Fuertes per US dollar. As a result of this devaluation, Schlumberger recorded a pretax and after-tax foreign currency loss of $92 million during the first quarter of 2013. This amount is classified in Restructuring & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

2012

Schlumberger recorded $15 million of pretax merger and integration-related charges ($13 million after-tax) in connection with the August 27, 2010 acquisition of Smith International, Inc. This amount is classified in Merger & integration in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

3. Earnings Per Share

The following is a reconciliation from basic earnings per share of Schlumberger to diluted earnings per share of Schlumberger:

The estimated fair value of Schlumberger’s Long-term Debt at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, based on quoted market prices, was $8.5 billion and $9.9 billion, respectively.

10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Schlumberger is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. To mitigate these risks, Schlumberger utilizes derivative instruments. Schlumberger does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

As a multinational company, Schlumberger conducts business in more than 85 countries. Schlumberger’s functional currency is primarily the US dollar, which is consistent with the oil and gas industry. However, outside the United States, a significant portion of Schlumberger’s expenses is incurred in foreign currencies. Therefore, when the US dollar weakens (strengthens) in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries in which Schlumberger conducts business, the US dollar–reported expenses will increase (decrease).

Schlumberger is exposed to risks on future cash flows to the extent that local currency expenses exceed revenues denominated in local currency that are other than the functional currency. In addition, Schlumberger is also exposed to risks on future cash flows relating to certain of its long-term debt which is denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to provide a hedge against a portion of these cash flow risks. These contracts are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the hedge recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of hedging instruments, if any, is recorded directly to earnings.

At March 31, 2013, Schlumberger recognized a cumulative net $44 million loss in Equity relating to revaluation of foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options designated as cash flow hedges, the majority of which is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

Schlumberger is also exposed to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities which are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Schlumberger uses foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency options to hedge this exposure as it relates to certain currencies. These contracts are accounted for as fair value hedges with the fair value of the contracts recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and changes in the fair value recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income along with the change in fair value of the hedged item.

At March 31, 2013, contracts were outstanding for the US dollar equivalent of $7.2 billion in various foreign currencies, of which $3.9 billion relate to hedges of debt denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.

Commodity Price Risk

Schlumberger is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in the price of certain commodities, such as fuel. Schlumberger utilizes option contracts to manage a small percentage of the price risk associated with forecasted fuel purchases. The objective of these contracts is to reduce the variability of cash flows associated with the forecasted purchase of those commodities. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment and therefore, changes in the fair value of the option contracts are recorded directly to earnings.

The notional amount of outstanding option commodity contracts was $7 million at March 31, 2013.

Interest Rate Risk

Schlumberger is subject to interest rate risk on its debt and its investment portfolio. Schlumberger maintains an interest rate risk management strategy that uses a mix of variable and fixed rate debt combined with its investment portfolio and occasionally interest rate swaps to mitigate the exposure to changes in interest rates.

At March 31, 2013, Schlumberger had fixed rate debt aggregating $9.5 billion and variable rate debt aggregating $1.6 billion.

Short-term investments and Fixed income investments, held to maturity, totaled $3.7 billion at March 31, 2013, and were comprised primarily of money market funds, eurodollar time deposits, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, euro notes and Eurobonds, and were substantially all denominated in US dollars. The carrying value of these investments approximated fair value, which was estimated using quoted market prices for those or similar investments.

12. Contingencies

In 2009, Schlumberger learned that United States officials began a grand jury investigation and an associated regulatory inquiry, both related to certain Schlumberger operations in specified countries that are subject to United States trade and economic sanctions. Also in 2009, prior to being acquired by Schlumberger, Smith received an administrative subpoena with respect to its historical business practices in certain countries that are subject to United States trade and economic sanctions. Governmental agencies and authorities have a broad range

Table of Contents

of civil and criminal penalties that they may seek to impose for violations of trade and economic sanction laws including, but not limited to, disgorgement, fines, penalties and modifications to business practices. In recent years, these agencies and authorities have obtained a wide range of penalties in settlements with companies arising from trade and economic sanction investigations, including in some cases fines and other penalties in the tens and hundreds of millions of dollars. Schlumberger is cooperating with the governmental authorities and cannot currently predict the outcome or estimate the possible impact of the ultimate resolution of these matters.

On April 20, 2010, a fire and explosion occurred onboard the semisubmersible drilling rig Deepwater Horizon, owned by Transocean Ltd. and under contract to a subsidiary of BP plc. Pursuant to a contract between M-I SWACO and BP, M-I SWACO provided certain services under the direction of BP. A number of legal actions, certain of which named an M-I SWACO entity as a defendant, were filed in connection with the Deepwater Horizon incident. Many of these claims were consolidated into multidistrict litigation pending in federal court (the “MDL”). During the first quarter of 2013, the federal court entered its order dismissing all claims against M-I SWACO that were consolidated as part of the MDL.

Schlumberger and its subsidiaries are party to various other legal proceedings from time to time. A liability is accrued when a loss is both probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management believes that the probability of a material loss is remote. However, litigation is inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate disposition of these proceedings.

During the second quarter of 2012, Schlumberger sold its Wilson distribution business to National Oilwell Varco Inc. (“NOV”) for $906 million in cash.

During July 2012, Schlumberger completed the sale of its 56% interest in CE Franklin Ltd. to NOV for $122 million in cash.

As Wilson and CE Franklin comprised Schlumberger’s entire Distribution segment, the results of this segment were classified as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

OILFIELD SERVICES

First-quarter revenue of $10.7 billion decreased 5% sequentially principally due to the strong year-end product, software and multiclient sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the seasonal activity slowdowns during the first quarter. Sequentially, Reservoir Characterization Group revenue decreased 11% to $2.8 billion, Production Group revenue decreased 4% to $3.8 billion and Drilling Group revenue was flat at $4.1 billion. Geographically, International revenue of $7.3 billion decreased $347 million, or 5%, while North America revenue of $3.3 billion declined $133 million, or 4%. The strong year-end product, software and multiclient sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 accounted for more than half of the sequential decline in revenue while the rest of the decline reflected the seasonal activity slowdowns in the North Sea, Russia and China, weather-related work delays in the Brunei, Malaysia & Philippines and Australasia GeoMarkets and lower pricing as a result of excess capacity in US land. However, these sequential effects were partially offset by strong exploration and drilling activity in Angola, and strong winter project activity in Western Canada & Alaska.

First-quarter pretax operating income of $2.0 billion decreased 6% sequentially. International pretax operating income of $1.5 billion and North America pretax operating income of $627 million both declined 4% sequentially.

Pretax operating margin of 19.0% decreased 37 basis points (bps) sequentially. International pretax operating margin was stable at 20.5% with strong performances in Latin America and the Middle East & Asia offsetting a decline in Europe/CIS/Africa. North America pretax operating margin was essentially flat at 19.1%. By segment, the Drilling Group pretax operating margin increased to 17.9% while the Reservoir Characterization Group pretax operating margin decreased to 27.0% and the Production Group pretax operating margin was flat at 15.1%.

Reservoir Characterization Group

First-quarter revenue of $2.8 billion decreased 11% sequentially. Pretax operating income of $758 million was 18% lower compared to the prior quarter.

Sequentially, the revenue decrease was mainly due to the prior quarter’s strong year-end WesternGeco multiclient and Schlumberger Information Solutions (SIS) software sales while Wireline revenue was down due to activity slowdown in Latin America and adverse weather conditions in Asia and Russia.

Pretax operating margin of 27.0% decreased 215 bps sequentially, due to the absence of the effect of the seasonal year-end SIS software sales and WesternGeco multiclient revenue.

Drilling Group

First-quarter revenue of $4.1 billion was flat sequentially. Pretax operating income of $741 million was 7% higher than the prior quarter.

Sequentially, a seasonal decline in M-I SWACO revenue was offset by higher revenues from Drilling & Measurements services, on improving pricing from a more favorable technology mix and increased activity in Europe/CIS/Africa Area and the Middle East.

Pretax operating margin of 17.9% increased 111 bps as a result of better pricing from a higher-technology mix for Drilling & Measurements services and improved profitability in Integrated Product Management (IPM) projects in the Middle East.

Production Group

First-quarter revenue of $3.8 billion decreased 4% sequentially. Pretax operating income of $573 million was 3% lower sequentially.

 

19


Table of Contents

The sequential revenue decline was primarily due to lower Completions and Artificial Lift product sales following their strong year-end highs. In addition, Well Services revenues were also lower due to weaker pricing as a result of excess capacity in US land despite an increase in stage count due to Western Canada winter activity gains.

Pretax operating margin of 15.1% was flat sequentially as improved profitability for Schlumberger Production Management (SPM) project-related activities in Latin America and improved Well Services results in both the US Gulf of Mexico and the International Areas were offset by pricing weakness in US land.

OILFIELD SERVICES

First-quarter revenue of $10.7 billion increased 8% year-on-year with strong growth in all Product Groups. Geographically, International revenue of $7.3 billion grew $853 million, or 13% year-on-year, while North America revenue of $3.3 billion declined $144 million, or 4%, year-on-year.

The International revenue growth, which outpaced the 7% rig count increase, was led by the Middle East & Asia with revenue of $2.5 billion growing 21%, mainly from robust results across all Technologies in Saudi Arabia, strong IPM results in Iraq, and sustained land and offshore drilling activity in the Australasia and China GeoMarkets. Europe/CIS/Africa revenue of $2.9 billion increased 11%, led by the Sub-Sahara Africa region on strong development and exploration drilling. The Russia and Central Asia region saw strong activity while the North Sea GeoMarket posted firm growth as activity migrated from exploration to development and production-related projects. Latin America revenue of $1.9 billion grew 8%, mainly in Ecuador from solid progress on the SPM Shushufindi project. Strong revenue was also reported by the Mexico & Central America and the Argentina, Bolivia & Chile GeoMarkets. North America revenue of $3.3 billion decreased 4%—mainly from land activity, which was down 11% year-on-year while offshore was up 26%. The increase in offshore revenue resulted from higher drilling activity as the number of deepwater rigs increased by more than 30% year-on-year in the US Gulf of Mexico. The decline in land revenue was mainly due to pricing weakness for both pressure pumping services and for other Technologies as overall rig count declined by 15% year-on-year.

Year-on-year, pretax operating margin of 19.0% declined 59 bps, as International pretax operating margin improved 135 bps to 20.5% while North America pretax operating margin declined 356 bps to 19.1%. Middle East & Asia showed a 125 bps year-on-year margin improvement to reach 24.3%, Europe/CIS/Africa increased by 120 bps to 17.8%, and Latin America improved by 123 bps to 19.5%. The decline in North America margin was mainly due to pricing pressure for Well Services production technologies on land, while the expansion in International margin was due to strong contributions from Testing Services and Drilling & Measurements Technologies on improved profitability from higher offshore exploration and drilling activity. Improved profitability of IPM and SPM project-related activities in the Latin America and Middle East & Asia Areas also contributed to the expanded international margin. By segment, Reservoir Characterization Group pretax operating margin increased 94 bps to 27.0% due to improved profitability in Testing Services while the pretax operating margin of the Drilling Group increased 57 bps to 17.9% from better margins from Drilling & Measurements. Production Group pretax operating margin declined 237 bps to 15.1% due mainly to lower prices for Well Services production technologies in US land, although the effect of this was partially offset by improved profitability on SPM projects in Latin America.

Reservoir Characterization Group

First-quarter revenue of $2.8 billion increased 9% year-on-year led by double-digit growth in Testing Services activity and SIS software sales, which were driven by improved offshore exploration activity and increased sales across all international Areas. WesternGeco grew on higher marine vessel utilization at better pricing and improved UniQ and conventional land seismic productivity in the Middle East and Australia.

Pretax operating margin of 27.0% increased 94 bps year-on-year due mainly to improved profitability in Testing Services which benefited from high-margin offshore exploration activity.

Drilling Group

First-quarter revenue of $4.1 billion grew 9% year-on-year led by robust growth in Drilling & Measurements technologies as offshore drilling activity strengthened in the US Gulf of Mexico, Sub-Sahara Africa, Sakhalin, Asia and Australia, and as rig count grew in key international land markets in Saudi Arabia, China and Australia. Drilling Tools & Remedial activity increased across all Areas and IPM grew strongly as projects in Iraq and Australia ramped up.

 

21


Table of Contents

Pretax operating margin of 17.9% increased 57 bps year-on-year reflecting increased drilling activity in the US Gulf of Mexico and the international Areas, and more favorable pricing from an improved technology mix, particularly in Drilling & Measurements.

Production Group

First-quarter revenue of $3.8 billion increased 7% year-on-year led by double-digit growth in Artificial Lift, Well Intervention, Completions and Well Services production technologies in the international Areas. Framo and the Subsea Services Technologies posted growth of more than 50% while SPM revenue more than doubled as projects in Latin America came in ahead of plans. The Group revenue increase, however, was partly reduced by a decline in pressure pumping revenues in North America land.

Pretax operating margin of 15.1% declined 237 bps mainly due to pricing weakness in Well Services production technologies in US land, although the effect of this was partially offset by improved profitability in SPM projects in Latin America.

INTEREST & OTHER INCOME

Interest & other income consisted of the following for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

     0.9     1.0

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2013 was 24.5% compared to 23.7% for the same period of 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the impact of the $92 million charge relating to the foreign currency devaluation in Venzuela that was recorded in the first quarter of 2013 which had no related tax benefit.

CHARGES AND CREDITS

Schlumberger recorded the following charges during the first three months of 2013 and 2012.

2013

Although the functional currency of Schlumberger’s operations in Venezuela is the US dollar, a portion of the transactions are denominated in local currency. In February 2013, Venezuela’s currency was devalued from the prior exchange rate of 4.3 Bolivar Fuertes per US dollar to 6.3 Bolivar Fuertes per US dollar. Although this devaluation does result in a reduction in the US dollar reported amount of local currency denominated revenue and expenses, the impact is not material to Schlumberger’s consolidated financial statements. As a result

Table of Contents

of this devaluation, Schlumberger recorded a pretax and after-tax foreign currency loss of $92 million during the first quarter of 2013. This amount is classified in Restructuring & other in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

2012

Schlumberger recorded $15 million of pretax merger and integration-related charges ($13 million after-tax) in connection with the 2010 acquisition of Smith. This amount is classified in Merger & integration in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Key liquidity events during the first three months of 2013 and 2012 included:

 

   

On April 17, 2008, the Schlumberger Board of Directors approved an $8 billion share repurchase program for shares of Schlumberger common stock, to be acquired in the open market before December 31, 2011. On July 21, 2011, the Schlumberger Board of Directors approved an extension of this repurchase program to December 31, 2013. Schlumberger had repurchased $7.3 billion of shares under this program as of March 31, 2013.

The following table summarizes the activity, during the three months ended March 31, under this share repurchase program:

Three months ended March 31, 2012

   $ 324         4.4       $ 74.01   

 

   

Cash flow provided by operations was $1.1 billion in the first three months of 2013 compared to $0.8 billion in the first three months of 2012 reflecting a lower increase in working capital requirements quarter-on-quarter.

 

   

Capital expenditures were $0.9 billion in the first three months of 2013 compared to $1.0 billion during the first three months of 2012. Capital expenditures for the full year of 2013 are expected to be approximately $3.9 billion as compared to $4.7 billion in 2012.

At times in recent quarters, Schlumberger has experienced delays in payments from its national oil company customer in Venezuela. Schlumberger operates in more than 85 countries. At March 31, 2013, only five of those countries (including Venezuela) individually accounted for greater than 5% of Schlumberger’s accounts receivable balance of which only one, the United States, represented greater than 10%.

As of March 31, 2013 Schlumberger had $5.6 billion of cash and short-term investments on hand. Schlumberger had separate committed debt facility agreements aggregating $4.1 billion with commercial banks, of which $3.8 billion was available and unused as of March 31, 2013. This included $3.5 billion of committed facilities which support commercial paper programs in the United States and Europe. Schlumberger believes that these amounts are sufficient to meet future business requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Schlumberger had no commercial paper outstanding as of March 31, 2013.

Other Matters

During the first quarter of 2013, certain non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger provided oilfield services to the National Iranian Oil Company and certain of its affiliates (“NIOC”). Schlumberger has not bid on any new contracts relating to Iran’s petroleum production since March 2009. Schlumberger’s first-quarter 2013 revenue attributable to this activity was $98 million, which resulted in net income of $56 million in its consolidated financial statements. Schlumberger intends to discontinue such activity in Iran in 2013 and is currently winding down its operations there. As a result, Schlumberger anticipates presenting the results of this business as a discontinued operation once the wind down is complete.

Schlumberger’s activity in Iran included obtaining services from and engaging in other dealings with the government of Iran that are incidental to operating in Iran, and the expenses of which are reflected in the net income disclosed above. These services and other dealings consisted of paying taxes, duties, license fees and other typical governmental charges, along with payments for utilities, transportation, hotel accommodations, facility rentals, telecommunications services, newspaper advertisements, recreational and fitness memberships, and the purchase of routine office and similar supplies from entities associated with the government of Iran. Collections of amounts owed to Schlumberger were received in part by depository accounts held by two non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger at a branch of Bank Saderat Iran (“Saderat”), and in part by a depositary account held by one of such non-US subsidiaries at Bank Tejarat (“Tejarat”) in Tehran. The accounts at Saderat are

 

24


Table of Contents

maintained solely for the deposit by NIOC of amounts owed to non-US subsidiaries of Schlumberger. The account at Tejarat is maintained also for payment of expenses in connection with operating in Iran, such as payroll expenses, rental payments and taxes. In addition, NIOC maintains bank accounts at Bank Melli Iran (“Melli”) through which it made payments to a non-US subsidiary of Schlumberger for services provided in Iran under letters of credit issued by Melli. Schlumberger maintains no bank accounts at Melli. Schlumberger will discontinue its dealings with Melli, Saderat and Tejarat following the receipt of all amounts owed to Schlumberger for services in Iran.

These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, global economic conditions; changes in exploration and production spending by Schlumberger’s customers and changes in the level of oil and natural gas exploration and development; general economic, political and business conditions in key regions of the world; pricing erosion; weather and seasonal factors; operational delays; production declines; changes in government regulations and regulatory requirements, including those related to offshore oil and gas exploration, radioactive sources, explosives, chemicals, hydraulic fracturing services and climate-related initiatives; the inability of technology to meet new challenges in exploration; and other risks and uncertainties detailed in our first-quarter 2013 earnings release, our most recent Form 10-K and other filings that we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize (or the consequences of such a development changes), or should our underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those reflected in our forward-looking statements. Schlumberger disclaims any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting Schlumberger, see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” of the Schlumberger Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. Schlumberger’s exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2012.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Schlumberger has carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of Schlumberger’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of Schlumberger’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that Schlumberger files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Schlumberger’s disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to its management, including the CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There has been no change in Schlumberger’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Schlumberger’s internal control over financial reporting.

Exhibit 10.3

SCHLUMBERGER LIMITED

RESTORATION SAVINGS PLAN

(As Amended and Restated Effective January 1, 2008)

First Amendment

Schlumberger Limited, a Curacao corporation (the “Company”), having reserved the right under Section 8.02 of the Schlumberger Limited Restoration Savings Plan, as amended and restated effective January 1, 2008, and as thereafter amended (the “Plan”), to amend the Plan, does hereby amend the Plan, effective January 1, 2013, as follows:

1. Section 2.01 of the Plan is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

“2.01 Employer Determination

Each year, prior to the last day of the Enrollment Period, the Employer shall determine those Eligible Employees who may participate in the Plan during the subsequent Plan Year. Such determination shall be made in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02. The Employer may also designate Employees who are newly hired or are transferred to the Employer (each, an ‘Initial Eligibility Event’) as Eligible Employees regardless of the timing of such Initial Eligibility Event.”

2. Section 2.02 of the Plan is hereby amended to add the following paragraph after the first paragraph of such section:

“Subject to Section 4.01, an Employee initially designated as an Eligible Employee during a Plan Year who is projected to have Excess Compensation during such Plan Year may elect to defer Base Compensation that is also Excess Compensation. Such election shall remain in effect until the first day of the Plan Year following the end of the next Enrollment Period to occur after the Employee’s designation as an Eligible Employee.”

3. Section 3.01 of the Plan is hereby amended to add the following sentence to the end of such section:

“Notwithstanding the above, and subject to Section 4.01, an Employee initially designated as an Eligible Employee during a Plan Year may make a deferral election within 30 days following the date such Employee is initially designated as an Eligible Employee. Such election shall remain in effect until the first day of the Plan Year following the next Enrollment Period.”


4. The first sentence of Section 4.01 of the Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

“Effective for Elective Deferrals occurring after the June 2012 Enrollment Period, an Eligible Employee may irrevocably elect to defer, in any whole percentage, an amount from 1% to 50% of such Eligible Employee’s Excess Compensation.”

5. Section 4.01 of the Plan is hereby amended to add the following paragraph to the end of such section:

“An Employee who becomes an Eligible Employee on or prior to the last day of the Enrollment Period may also make an election to defer, up to the limits set forth above, Base Compensation that is also Excess Compensation for the remainder of the Plan Year. An Employee who becomes an Eligible Employee after the last day of the Enrollment Period may make an election to defer, up to the limits set forth above: (i) Base Compensation that is also Excess Compensation earned for the remainder of the Plan Year and (ii) Base Compensation that is also Excess Compensation earned in the next following Plan Year. For purposes of clarity, an Employee’s deferral election shall remain in effect until the first day of the Plan Year following the next Enrollment Period to occur after the Employee’s designation as an Eligible Employee.”

6. Section 4.02 of the Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

“4.02 Matching Contributions. Each year the Employer shall determine the Matching Contribution.

Effective January 1, 2013, for Participants who were hired prior to October 1, 2004 and for Participants who did not elect to cease participation in the Qualified Defined Benefit Plans effective January 1, 2005, the Matching Contribution shall be equal to 50% of the first 6% of each participant’s Elective Deferrals made during the Plan Year. Such contributions shall be made by the Employer as soon as administratively practicable following each payroll period.

Effective January 1, 2013, for Participants who were hired on or after October 1, 2004 and for Participants who elected to cease participation in the Qualified Defined Benefit Plans effective January 1, 2005, the Matching Contribution shall be equal to 100% of the first 6% of each participant’s Elective Deferrals made during the Plan Year. Such contributions shall be made by the Employer as soon as administratively practicable following each payroll period.”

7. Section 5.01 of the Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

“5.01 Allocation of Elective Deferrals. As of each pay period, the Employer shall allocate the Elective Deferrals made during such pay period to a Participant’s Account.”

 

2


8. Section 5.02 of the Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

“5.02 Allocation of Matching Contributions. As of each pay period, the Employer shall allocate the Matching Contributions, if any, among the Accounts of Participants or Former Participants who made Elective Deferrals during the such pay period.”

9. The table in Section 6.01(a) of the Plan is hereby amended to read as follows:

 

“Completed

Exhibit 10.4

SCHLUMBERGER 2010 OMNIBUS STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

2013 ONE YEAR PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Performance Share Unit Award Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into effective by and between Schlumberger Limited (the “Company”), and Simon Ayat (“Employee”), pursuant to the Schlumberger 2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Employee and the Company agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

1. Award. In consideration of Employee’s continued employment as hereinafter set forth, the Company hereby grants to Employee an award of “Performance Share Units”, provided that (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement) the final number of Performance Share Units shall be determined in accordance with the performance criteria set forth on Attachment I. The Target Performance Share Units subject to this award is set forth in an award notice previously delivered to Employee. The Performance Share Units are notional units of measurement denominated in shares of Common Stock. Each Performance Share Unit represents a right to receive one share of Common Stock or equivalent value, subject to the conditions and restrictions on transferability set forth below and in the Plan.

2. Vesting of Performance Share Units. The period of time between the date of grant specified in the award notice (the “Grant Date”) and the vesting of Performance Share Units (and the termination of restrictions thereon) shall be referred to herein as the “Performance Period.” On January 17, 2014 (the “Vesting Date”), a number of Performance Share Units shall vest based on the extent to which the Company has satisfied the performance condition set forth on Attachment I to this Agreement, provided that Employee is continuously employed by the Company in a position eligible to receive Performance Share Units pursuant to this Agreement (as determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion) (an “Eligible Position”) through the Vesting Date and has not experienced a Termination of Employment as of such date.

3. Settlement of Performance Share Units. Payment of vested Performance Share Units shall be made in shares of Common Stock as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event later than 2-1/2 months following the year in which the Performance Share Units vest (the “Settlement Date”); provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, settle the vested Performance Share Units in cash based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Settlement Date.

4. Forfeitures of Performance Share Units.

(a) Until the Performance Period specified in Section 2 has expired, upon Employee’s Termination of Employment or Employee ceasing to be employed in an Eligible Position, Employee shall immediately forfeit all Performance Share Units, without the payment of any consideration. Upon forfeiture, neither Employee nor any successors, heirs, assigns, or legal representatives of Employee shall thereafter have any further rights or interest in the Performance Share Units.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee engages in Detrimental Activity (as defined below) prior to the Settlement Date, Employee shall immediately forfeit all Performance Share Units without the payment of any consideration.


5. Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Performance Share Units granted hereunder to Employee may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, other than to the Company as a result of the forfeiture of units as provided herein or pursuant to Section 10.

(b) Consistent with the foregoing, except as contemplated by Section 10, no right or benefit under this Agreement shall be subject to transfer, anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to any debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of the person entitled to such benefits. If Employee shall attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, assign, sell, pledge, encumber or charge any right or benefit hereunder, other than as contemplated by Section 10, or if any creditor shall attempt to subject the same to a writ of garnishment, attachment, execution, sequestration, or any other form of process or involuntary lien or seizure, then such attempt shall have no effect and shall be void.

6. Rights as a Stockholder. Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder with regard to the Performance Share Units. Rights as a stockholder shall arise only if the Performance Share Units are settled in shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 3.

7. Taxes. To the extent that the receipt of the Performance Share Units or the payment upon lapse of any restrictions results in income to Employee for federal or state income tax purposes or in any other cases where the Company holds the view that it is obligated to withhold taxes, Employee shall deliver to the Company immediately prior to the time of such receipt or lapse, as the case may be, such amount of money or shares of Common Stock owned by Employee, at Employee’s election, as the Company may require to meet its obligation under applicable tax laws or regulations, and, if Employee fails to do so, the Company is authorized to withhold from the payment for vested Performance Share Units or from any cash or other form of remuneration then or thereafter payable to Employee an amount equal to any tax required to be withheld by reason of such resulting compensation income. The Performance Share Units are intended to be “short-term deferrals” exempt from Section 409A and shall be construed and interpreted accordingly.

8. Changes in Capital Structure. As more fully described in the Plan, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall at any time be changed or exchanged by declaration of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, or recapitalization, the number and kind of Performance Share Units shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to maintain their equivalence to the proportionate number of shares.

 

Page 2 of 6


9. Compliance With Securities Laws. The Company shall not be required to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such issuance would violate the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations or the laws of any other country. Prior to the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company may require that Employee (or Employee’s legal representative upon Employee’s death or Disability) enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Company may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with this Agreement.

10. Assignment. The Performance Share Units are not transferable (either voluntarily or involuntarily) by the recipient except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Payment of the Performance Share Units after your death shall be made to your estate or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee, to the person or persons entitled to receive such payment under the laws of descent and distribution. No purported assignment or transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall vest in the purported assignee or transferee any interest or right therein whatsoever but immediately upon any such purported assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, the Performance Share Units shall terminate and become of no further effect.

11. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee, the Company and their respective permitted successors or assigns (including personal representatives, heirs and legatees). Employee may not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement except to the extent, and in the manner, expressly permitted herein.

12. Limitation of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan may be construed to:

(a) give Employee any right to be awarded any further Performance Share Units (or other form of stock incentive awards) other than in the sole discretion of the Committee;

(b) give Employee or any other person any interest in any fund or in any specified asset or assets of the Company (other than the Performance Share Units); or

(c) confer upon Employee the right to continue in the employment or service of the Company or any Subsidiary.

13. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

14. No Waiver. The failure of Employee or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right Employee or the Company may have under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

15. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan. Certain other terms used herein have definitions given to them in the first place in which they are used. In addition, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 15.

The Committee may delegate its authority to determine whether Employee has engaged in “detrimental activity” to an officer of the Company or to a subcommittee of the Committee.

(b) “Disability” means such disability (whether physical or mental impairment) which totally and permanently incapacitates Employee from any gainful employment in any field which Employee is suited by education, training, or experience, as determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c) “Termination of Employment” means the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries. Temporary absences from employment because of illness, vacation or leave of absence and transfers among the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be considered a Termination of Employment. Any questions as to whether and when there has been a Termination of Employment, and the cause of such termination, shall be determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion.

16. Miscellaneous.

(a) Employee hereby acknowledges that he or she has received, reviewed and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to this Agreement. Employee hereby accepts such terms and conditions, subject to the provisions of the Plan and administrative interpretations thereof. Employee further agrees that such terms and conditions shall control this Agreement, notwithstanding any provisions in any employment agreement or in any prior awards.

(b) Employee hereby acknowledges that he or she is to consult with and rely upon only Employee’s own tax, legal, and financial advisors regarding the consequences and risks of this Agreement and the award of Performance Share Units.

2. Vesting of Performance Share Units. The period of time between the date of grant specified in the award notice (the “Grant Date”) and the vesting of Performance Share Units (and the termination of restrictions thereon) shall be referred to herein as the “Performance Period.” The Performance Share Units shall become vested as follows:

(a) On January 17, 2015 (the “Vesting Date”), a number of Performance Share Units shall vest based on the extent to which the Company has satisfied the performance condition set forth on Attachment I to this Agreement, provided that Employee is continuously employed by the Company in an Eligible Position (as defined below) through the Vesting Date and has not experienced a Termination of Employment as of such date.

(b) If Employee’s Termination of Employment (as defined below) occurs due to Retirement (as defined below), Disability (as defined below) or death (each, a “Qualifying Termination”) on or after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then on the Vesting Date Employee shall vest in the number of Performance Share Units determined by multiplying (i) the number of Performance Share Units that would have vested as determined in accordance Subsection 2(a) had Employee’s Termination of Employment not occurred and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed between the Grant Date and the date of Employee’s Termination of Employment and the denominator of which is 730.

(c) If Employee ceases to be employed in a position eligible to receive Performance Share Units pursuant to this Agreement (as determined by the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion) (an “Eligible Position”) on or after the first anniversary of the Grant Date, then on the Vesting Date Employee shall vest in the number of Performance Share Units determined by multiplying (i) the number of Performance Share


Units that would have vested as determined in accordance Subsection 2(a) had Employee not ceased to be employed in an Eligible Position and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapsed between the Grant Date and the date Employee ceased to be employed in an Eligible Position and the denominator of which is 730, provided that Employee (x) is continuously employed by the Company through the Vesting Date or (y) experiences a Qualifying Termination after Employee ceases to be employed in an Eligible Position. For the avoidance of doubt, if Employee experiences a Qualifying Termination after Employee ceases to be employed in an Eligible Position, the provisions of this Subsection 2(c) shall determine the number of Performance Share Units that shall vest on the Vesting Date. If Employee ceases to be employed in an Eligible Position and then is again employed is an Eligible Position (while remaining continuously employed by the Company) during the Performance Period, the numerator in clause (ii) of this Subsection 2(c) shall be equal to the total number of days that Employee is employed in an Eligible Position during the Performance Period.

3. Settlement of Performance Share Units. Payment of vested Performance Share Units shall be made in shares of Common Stock as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event later than 2-1/2 months following the year in which the Performance Share Units vest (the “Settlement Date”); provided, however, that the Committee may, in its sole and absolute discretion, settle the vested Performance Share Units in cash based on the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Settlement Date.

4. Forfeitures of Performance Share Units.

(a) Until the Performance Period specified in Section 2 has expired, upon Employee’s Termination of Employment from the Company other than as described in Subsection 2(b) or Employee ceasing to be employed in an Eligible Position other than as described in Subsection 2(c), Employee shall immediately forfeit all Performance Share Units, without the payment of any consideration. Upon forfeiture, neither Employee nor any successors, heirs, assigns, or legal representatives of Employee shall thereafter have any further rights or interest in the Performance Share Units.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee engages in Detrimental Activity (as defined below) prior to the Settlement Date, Employee shall immediately forfeit all Performance Share Units without the payment of any consideration.

5. Restrictions on Transfer.

(a) Performance Share Units granted hereunder to Employee may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, other than to the Company as a result of the forfeiture of units as provided herein or pursuant to Section 10.

 

Page 2 of 7


(b) Consistent with the foregoing, except as contemplated by Section 10, no right or benefit under this Agreement shall be subject to transfer, anticipation, alienation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, sell, assign, pledge, encumber or charge the same shall be void. No right or benefit hereunder shall in any manner be liable for or subject to any debts, contracts, liabilities or torts of the person entitled to such benefits. If Employee shall attempt to transfer, anticipate, alienate, assign, sell, pledge, encumber or charge any right or benefit hereunder, other than as contemplated by Section 10, or if any creditor shall attempt to subject the same to a writ of garnishment, attachment, execution, sequestration, or any other form of process or involuntary lien or seizure, then such attempt shall have no effect and shall be void.

6. Rights as a Stockholder. Employee shall have no rights as a stockholder with regard to the Performance Share Units. Rights as a stockholder shall arise only if the Performance Share Units are settled in shares of Common Stock as set forth in Section 3.

7. Taxes. To the extent that the receipt of the Performance Share Units or the payment upon lapse of any restrictions results in income to Employee for federal or state income tax purposes or in any other cases where the Company holds the view that it is obligated to withhold taxes, Employee shall deliver to the Company immediately prior to the time of such receipt or lapse, as the case may be, such amount of money or shares of Common Stock owned by Employee, at Employee’s election, as the Company may require to meet its obligation under applicable tax laws or regulations, and, if Employee fails to do so, the Company is authorized to withhold from the payment for vested Performance Share Units or from any cash or other form of remuneration then or thereafter payable to Employee an amount equal to any tax required to be withheld by reason of such resulting compensation income. The Performance Share Units are intended to be “short-term deferrals” exempt from Section 409A and shall be construed and interpreted accordingly.

8. Changes in Capital Structure. As more fully described in the Plan, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall at any time be changed or exchanged by declaration of a stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, or recapitalization, the number and kind of Performance Share Units shall be appropriately and equitably adjusted so as to maintain their equivalence to the proportionate number of shares.

9. Compliance With Securities Laws. The Company shall not be required to deliver any shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such issuance would violate the Securities Act of 1933 or any other applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations or the laws of any other country. Prior to the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Agreement, the Company may require that Employee (or Employee’s legal representative upon Employee’s death or Disability) enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Company may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with this Agreement.

10. Assignment. The Performance Share Units are not transferable (either voluntarily or involuntarily) by the recipient except by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Payment of the Performance Share Units after your death shall be made to your estate or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Committee, to the person or persons entitled to receive such payment under the laws of descent and distribution. No purported assignment or transfer, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall vest in the purported assignee or transferee any interest or right therein whatsoever but immediately upon any such purported assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, the Performance Share Units shall terminate and become of no further effect.

11. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Employee, the Company and their respective permitted successors or assigns (including personal representatives, heirs and legatees). Employee may not assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement except to the extent, and in the manner, expressly permitted herein.

12. Limitation of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan may be construed to:

(a) give Employee any right to be awarded any further Performance Share Units (or other form of stock incentive awards) other than in the sole discretion of the Committee;

(b) give Employee or any other person any interest in any fund or in any specified asset or assets of the Company (other than the Performance Share Units); or

(c) confer upon Employee the right to continue in the employment or service of the Company or any Subsidiary.

13. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.

14. No Waiver. The failure of Employee or the Company to insist upon strict compliance with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right Employee or the Company may have under this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement.

15. Definitions. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan. Certain other terms used herein have definitions given to them in the first place in which they are used. In addition, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth in this Section 15.

ATTACHMENT I

Performance Condition

Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, vesting of the Performance Share Units is conditioned upon the Company achieving average annual Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) of greater than 12.5% for the period beginning on January 1, 2013 and ending on December 31, 2014 (the “Measurement Period”). ROCE means the sum of (i) income from continuing operations before charges and credits and (ii) the after tax impact of net interest expense, divided by the sum of (x) the average quarterly equity, including noncontrolling interests and (y) the average quarterly net debt.

The Average Annual ROCE shall be calculated as the average ROCE for each calendar year contained in the Measurement Period.

The number of Performance Share Units that shall vest as of the vesting date shall be equal to the product of (i) the Target Performance Share Units and (ii) the Payout Factor (with any fractional shares rounded up to the next whole share).

The ROCE achieved shall be certified by the Committee and shall determine the Payout Factor based on the chart below. The Payout Factor for ROCE achievement levels between points on this chart shall be determined by linear interpolation between the values listed. In no event shall the Payout Factor exceed 250%. If the ROCE achieved is less than or equal to 12.5%, the Payout Factor shall be zero.

2013 THREE YEAR PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Performance Share Unit Award Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into effective by and between Schlumberger Limited (the “Company”), and                     (“Employee”), pursuant to the Schlumberger 2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Employee and the Company agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

Upon forfeiture, neither Employee nor any successors, heirs, assigns, or legal representatives of Employee shall thereafter have any further rights or interest in the Performance Share Units.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee engages in Detrimental Activity (as defined below) prior to the Settlement Date, Employee shall immediately forfeit all Performance Share Units without the payment of any consideration.

5. Restrictions on Transfer.

Exhibit 10.7

Rules of the Schlumberger

2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan for Employees in France

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Schlumberger Limited (the “Company”) has established the Schlumberger 2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”) in order to retain employees with a high degree of training, experience and ability, to attract new employees whose services are considered particularly valuable, to encourage the sense of proprietorship of such persons and to promote the active interest of such persons in the development and financial success of the Company and its Subsidiaries. This includes the Company’s branch in France and the Company’s subsidiaries in France of which the Company holds directly or indirectly at least 50% of the share capital (the “French Subsidiary”).

Section 21 of the 2010 Plan specifically authorizes the Committee to establish sub-plans as the Committee deems appropriate or advisable to implement the 2010 Plan.

The Committee, therefore, intends with this document to establish a sub-plan of the 2010 Plan for the purpose of granting awards that qualify for the specific treatment applicable to French Qualified Stock-Options, French Qualified Restricted Stock Units and French Qualified Performance Share Units awards to employees who are resident of France and who are or may become subject to French tax (i.e. income tax and/or social security tax) as a result of awards granted under the 2010 Plan (the “French Grantees”). The terms of the 2010 Plan, as set out in Appendix 1, 2, 3 & 4 hereto, shall, subject to the modifications in the following rules, constitute the Rules of the Schlumberger 2010 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan for Employees in France (the “French Plan”).

The adoption of this French Plan shall not confer upon the French Grantees, or any employees of the French Subsidiary, any employment rights and shall not be construed as part of the French Grantees’ employment contracts, if any. Subject to the terms of the 2010 Plan, the Committee reserves the right to amend or terminate the French Plan at any time. Such amendments would only apply to future grants and would not be retroactive.

This amendment and restatement of the French Plan is effective as of January 1, 2013 and is adopted as of April 18, 2013.


Appendix 1: French Terms applicable to Stock-Options

It is intended that Stock-Options granted under the French Plan shall qualify for the specific tax and social security charges treatment applicable to French Qualified Stock-Options granted under Articles L. 225-177 to L. 225-186 of the French Commercial Code, as subsequently amended, and in accordance with the relevant provisions set forth by French tax law and the French tax administration. The terms of the French Plan shall be interpreted accordingly and in accordance with the relevant provisions set forth by French tax and social security laws, and relevant Guidelines published by French tax and social security administrations and subject to the fulfillment of legal, tax and reporting obligations.

1. Definitions.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set forth in the 2010 Plan. The terms set out below will have the following meanings:

 

  (a) Option. The term “Option” shall have the following meaning:

 

  (1) Purchase stock options that are rights to acquire shares of Common Shares of the Company (“Shares”) repurchased by the Company prior to the vesting of the Options; or

 

  (2) Subscription stock options that are rights to subscribe for newly issued Shares.

(b) Closed Period. The term “Closed Period” means specific periods as set forth by Article L. 225-177 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, during which French Qualified Stock-Options cannot be granted, so long as such Closed Periods are applicable to Options, as described in Section 8 below.

(c) Grant Date. The term “Grant Date” shall be the date on which both (a) the French Grantee is designated, and (b) the terms and conditions of the Award including the number of Shares and the method for determining the Exercise Price are specified. In no event shall the Grant Date be during a Closed Period. In such a case, the Grant Date for the French Grantee would be the date described in Section 8 below.

2. Eligibility.

Options may not be granted under this appendix to an individual:

(a) unless he is employed by Schlumberger Limited or by a company which is a corporation subsidiary of Schlumberger Limited; or


(b) unless he is a director with a management function as defined in Article 225-185 of the French “Code de Commerce” of a company which is a corporation subsidiary of Schlumberger Limited; or

(c) who owns more than 10% of the share capital of Schlumberger Limited and who may not therefore be granted an option to satisfy the requirements of sub-paragraph 2 of Article 225-182 of the French “Code de Commerce” in France.

3. Non-Transferability.

Notwithstanding any provision in the 2010 Plan and, except in the case of death, Awards cannot be transferred to any third party. In addition, the Awards are only exercisable by the French Grantee during the lifetime of the French Grantee, to the extent applicable.

4. Conditions of the Option/Exercise Price.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision in the 2010 Plan, the terms and conditions of the Options shall not be modified after the Grant Date, except that the Exercise Price and number of Shares subject to the Option may be modified as provided under Section 7 below, or as otherwise in keeping with French law.

(b) The Options will vest and become exercisable pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2010 Plan, the French Plan and the respective Option agreement delivered to each French Grantee.

(c) The method for determining the exercise price payable pursuant to Options issued under the French Plan shall be fixed by the Committee on the Grant Date, but in no event shall the Exercise Price per Share be less than the greater of:

 

  (1) With respect to purchase stock options, the higher of either 80% of the average quotation price of Shares during the 20 days of quotation immediately preceding the Grant Date or 80% of the average purchase price paid for such Shares by the Company;

 

  (2) With respect to subscription stock options, 80% of the average quotation price of Shares during the 20 days of quotation immediately preceding the Grant Date; and

 

  (3) The minimum exercise price permitted under Section 5(b) of the 2010 Plan.

(d) The Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option will be recorded in an account in the name of the shareholder with a broker or in such other manner as the Company may otherwise determine in order to ensure compliance with applicable law.


5. Payment of Exercise Price and Withholding.

Notwithstanding any provisions in the 2010 Plan, upon exercise or vesting of an Award, as applicable, the full Exercise Price and any required tax and/or social security contributions to be withheld by the French Subsidiary on behalf of the French Grantee will have to be paid either in cash, by check or by wire transfer. No other method of payment is authorized under this French Plan.

6. Adjustments.

Notwithstanding any provision in the 2010 Plan, adjustments to the Exercise Price and/or the number of Shares subject to an Award issued hereunder shall be made to preclude the dilution or enlargement of benefits under the Award only in the event of certain transactions by the Company listed under Article L. 225-181 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, a repurchase of Shares by the Company at a price higher than the stock quotation price on the open market, and according to the provisions of Section L. 228-99 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, as well as according to specific decrees.

7. Reorganization.

In the event that a significant decrease in the value of Awards granted to French Grantees occurs or is likely to occur as a result of a reorganization as described in the 2010 Plan, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be required to, authorize the immediate vesting and exercise of Awards before the date on which any such reorganization becomes effective. If this occurs, the Awards may not qualify for favorable tax and social security treatment under French law.

8. Closed Periods.

Notwithstanding any provisions in the 2010 Plan to the contrary and since Shares are traded on a regulated market, Awards shall not be granted to French Grantees during the Closed Periods defined by Article L. 225-177 of the French Commercial Code, as amended, so long as such Closed Periods are applicable to the Awards. If the Grant Date were to occur during an applicable Closed Period, the Grant Date for French Grantees shall be the first date following the expiration of the Closed Period which would not be a prohibited Grant Date under the 2010 Plan rules, as determined by the Administrator.

9. Termination of Employment/Service.

If a termination of employment is due to death, the Award shall be exercisable and vested as set forth in Section 11 below.

In the event of a termination of employment for reasons other than death, the Award shall be exercisable and vested as set forth in the applicable agreement entered into with the French Grantee.


10. Death.

In the event of the death of a French Grantee, all unforfeited Awards shall become immediately vested and exercisable. The French Grantee’s heirs may exercise the Options within six months following the death, but any outstanding Option which remains unexercised shall expire six months following the date of the French Grantee’s death. The six-month exercise period will apply without regard to the term of the Option.

11. Term of the Option.

The term of the Option will be ten years unless otherwise specified in the applicable Option Agreement. This term can be extended only in the event of the death of the French Grantee, and in no event will the term exceed ten years.

12. Interpretation.

In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the present French Plan and the 2010 Plan, the provisions of the French Plan shall control for any grants made thereunder to French Grantees.
