Proposal No. 2Ratification of Selection of Principal Independent Public Accountants The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight of the work, and evaluation of the principal independent public accountants retained to audit our financial statements. The Audit Committee and Board have approved the selection of KPMG LLP as our principal independent public accountants to examine our financial statements and books and records for the year ended December 31, 2019,2020, and a resolution will be presented at the Annual 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 ended December 31, 2020, 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. As we communicated to our shareholders last year, the Audit Committee decided to submit a request for proposal to several public accounting firms, including KPMG, to serve as our principal independent public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2019. We obtained proposals from three multinational professional services firms. After management and the Audit Committee considered the firms’ proposals and conducted thorough interviews of the firms, the Audit Committee determined to engage KPMG as our principal independent public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2019. The Audit Committee and Board believe that the continued retention of KPMG to serve as our principal independent public accountants for the year ended December 31, 2019, is in the best interests of Halliburton and our shareholders.
The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is needed to approve the proposal. If the shareholders do not ratify the selection of KPMG, the Board will reconsider the selection of independent public accountants. | THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS AVOTE FORRATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF KPMG LLP AS PRINCIPAL INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS TO EXAMINE OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND BOOKS AND RECORDS FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2019.2020. |

Audit CommitteeReport We operate under a written charter, a copy of which is available on Halliburton’s website atwww.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, 2018,2019, 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, 2018,2019, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

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 are 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. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 22 | |

The Company created shareholder value by generating earnings in excess of our cost of capital of $788 million in Cash Value Added (CVA) for 2018. Our Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) for the three-year period ending December 31, 2018,2019, was 0.73%3.36%, which positioned the Company above the 75thpercentile relative to our performance peer group.
Despite outperforming our performance peer group, there were no annual incentives paid to any of our NEOs for the 2019 plan year. Additionally, our 2018 ROCE was greater than 10%, which exceeded our costthe Compensation Committee decided base salaries would remain unchanged for 2020, except for Messrs. Loeffler and Richard, both of capital.whom received the second half of their two-year promotion-related increases.

Results of 2019 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation In 2019, our compensation program received the support of 63% of the total votes cast at our Annual Meeting. These results showed measurable improvement from the prior year and indicated that we are headed in a good direction. Nevertheless, as discussed below, we continued our extensive outreach efforts as part of our commitment to ensure shareholder support for our compensation program moving forward. During the fall of 2019, we contacted shareholders representing more than 50% of our outstanding common stock and met with many of those shareholders, who collectively hold 31% of our outstanding common stock. We solicited their feedback on company strategy and performance, corporate governance, executive compensation, sustainability, and other topics. We continue to hear from our shareholders that they support our overall compensation program design and are appreciative of our ongoing efforts to consider their feedback as our program evolves. As detailed below, based on the most recent feedback from shareholders, the Committee made several significant modifications to our compensation program for the 2020 plan year. Key Activities and Changes Board Responsiveness to Shareholder Feedback Halliburton has always maintained open communications with the shareholder community. Seeking feedback from our shareholders on a regular basis is a critical part of our approach to managing our executive compensation program. During 2018, members of our senior management team participated in over 100 shareholder meetings and 18 conferences. We also engaged in targeted outreach with numerous shareholders to discuss corporate governance, executive compensation, and sustainability. Our current and incoming Compensation Committee chairs participated in this outreach effort with our major shareholders. This past year, following the 2018 Annual Meeting, we adjusted certain features of our program as part of our commitment to respond to shareholder feedback:
What we heard | | | What we did | Concern about the one-time stock awards granted in 2017 as part of our CEO succession plan | | | Eliminated special or one-time stock grants for internal promotions | We should eliminate the single-trigger vesting upon change-of-control | | | We are asking shareholders to approve amendments to our Stock and Incentive Plan that will implement a double-trigger vesting provision upon a change-of-control | Some executive perquisites were unnecessary | | | Eliminated several executive benefits/perquisites |
NEWLY IMPLEMENTED CHANGES
• | No special or one-time stock grants to any of the NEOs. There will be no special or one-time stock grants for internal promotions. This new practice was followed in the recent internal promotions of both our Chief Financial Officer in November 2018 and the President of the Western Hemisphere in February 2019 who received no special stock grants. | • | Adopted “double-trigger” vesting provisions. The Stock and Incentive Plan was amended on February 13, 2019, subject to shareholder approval, to implement a new double-trigger vesting provision upon a change-of-control. | • | Eliminated other executive benefits and perquisites that are not provided to all employees.The following table summarizes the changes: | | |
| Executive Benefit/Perquisite | Explanation | | Tax Gross Ups on Corporate Aircraft | NEOs will no longer receive tax gross ups for personal use of Corporate Aircraft. | | Country Club Memberships Dues | NEOs will no longer receive reimbursement for country club dues. | | Financial Planning | NEOs will no longer receive reimbursement for financial planning expenses. | | Executive Physicals | NEOs will no longer receive company-paid executive physicals. |
The Compensation Committee also considers advice from its independent consultant, and continually reviews the executive compensation program to ensure alignment with our shareholders’ interests, strategic goals, and current market practices.
While continuing to emphasize performance-based pay, we have responded to shareholder feedback and made enhancements to our program over the years, including:
• | Modified our long-term incentive mix to more heavily weight it towards performance units. | • | Modified the metrics in our Performance Unit Program to 100% relative ROCE which measures our profitability and capital efficiency. | • | Increased the level of disclosure with regard to our target setting, metric selection rationale, and the associated payout calculation under our short- and long-term incentive plans. |
Our ongoing, open dialogue with our shareholders helps ensure that the Board and management have a regular pulse on shareholder perspectives. It validatesthe views of our shareholders. These communications validate that our shareholders continue to be broadly supportive of the overall philosophy, objectives, and design of our program.

Performance Metrics Incentivize Shareholder Value Creation
ThroughDuring 2019, members of our senior management team participated in over 100 shareholder outreach in 2018, the significant majority of shareholders with whom we spoke reiterated that they agree withmeetings and 19 conferences. As is our choice and the mix of absolute and relative performance measurespractice, in the incentive plans. Theyfall of 2019, we also expressed appreciation for howengaged in targeted outreach with numerous shareholders.During this fall outreach, we described them duringcontacted shareholders representing more than 50% of our outreach discussions:
Short-term (annual) incentives depend on the achievementoutstanding common stock and met with many of two financial performance metrics – Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT)those shareholders, who collectively hold 31% of our outstanding common stock. We previewed changes to our compensation program under consideration by our Compensation Committee and Capital Charge. Together, these metrics (captured as Cash Value Added (CVA)) measure how successfully we maximize profit while minimizing capital investments. Shareholders value this performance measure because it has both income statement and balance sheet metrics that are focusedsolicited their feedback on our ability to manage cash and generate earnings, especially given our capital intensive cyclically-driven business.
Long-term performance incentives depend on relative Return on Capital Employed (ROCE). ROCE measures our profitability,compensation program, as well as our capital deployment efficiency, againstcompany strategy and performance, corporate governance, sustainability, and other topics. Our newly-appointed Compensation Committee Chair participated in this outreach effort.Based on the most recent feedback from shareholders, we made several significant modifications to our performance peer group. We consistently receive positive feedback about the mix of equity in our long-term incentives, especially the use of ROCE as the primary performance measure in our long-term incentive program.
Why CVA and ROCE?
In making decisions about the executive compensation program for the Compensation Committee has historically approved the use of relevant absolute and relative financial metrics that reward profitable growth above the cost of capital. The current mix of performance metrics in our incentive plans strongly support our returns-focused strategy, which is intended to achieve superior growth and returns for our shareholders by delivering technology and services that improve efficiency and maximize recovery for our customers.2020 plan year.

2019 Performance Overview We experienced challenging market dynamics in 2019 as our customers in the North American market fundamentally shifted from growth to capital discipline, impacting our business through reduced customer activity and additional pricing pressure, while the international markets continued on the road to recovery. We executed our value proposition, delivered exceptional safety and service quality, and remained focused on generating healthy returns and strong cash flow. 2019 marked the end of the first full decade of the shale revolution that propelled the United States to become the world's top hydrocarbon producer. Our company was an early participant in this development and invested and innovated alongside our customers since the beginning. As unconventionals enter the maturation phase, we are committed to the North American market and are taking appropriate actions to thrive in the new environment. We intend to continue our cost containment measures and to right size our fleet, high grade our customer portfolio, systematically improve our service delivery, grow our share of services per well, and develop differentiating technology that benefits both Halliburton and our customers. Internationally, we will continue focusing on profitable growth and improving our margins. We believe we have the right footprint and an enhanced technology portfolio to compete successfully across the international markets. | | | | | | CVA =NOPAT–Capital Charge | | ROCE = | Net Income+after-tax interest expense | | | Shareholders’ equity+Debt | |

2018 Overview
Our business further strengthened in 2018 as we continued to build for a longer industry recovery. We successfully maintained our global market share in 2018, which was accomplished by our investments in strategic growth areas and by competing in key markets as we continue to align our business with customers in the fastest growing market segments. Although the industry experienced headwinds in North America during the latter half of the year as a result of offtake capacity constraints and customer budget limitations, we believe these issues are temporary in nature. We continue to collaborate and engineer solutions to maximize asset value for our customers and to maximize returns for our shareholders.
We are well prepared for the current market environment in order to deliver leading returns for our shareholders. As we have proven over the years and demonstrated in 2018, our differentiating technology, our people, our customer alignment, and our financial discipline position us well to thrive in any market condition. During the 2018 performance year, we delivered the following results:
• | We generated $24.0$22.4 billionof total company revenue, a 16% increase from 2017, with improvements across all of our international regions. Our international business outgrew the international rig count for the second year in a row. | | We achieved exceptional safety and service quality performance during 2019. Our total recordable incident rate and non-productive timeimproved over 20%, both historical bests across our business. This is a result of our employees’ continued commitment to safety and process execution. | | | | | | | | | | We quickly adapted to market conditions by reducing our capital expenditures by24%to approximately $1.5 billion in 2019. These capital expenditures were predominantly made in our Sperry Drilling, Production Enhancement, Artificial Lift, Wireline and Perforating, and Production Solutions product service lines globally. Additionally, our total companylines. | | During 2019, we generated $2.4 billion of operating income was $2.5 billion during 2018. These results and improvements were primarily attributed to pressure pumping services, drilling activity, and artificial lift in North America, as well as drilling activity in the Eastern Hemisphere. | • | In our Completion and Production division, we capitalized on the market recovery in North America, delivering total year revenue growth of 22% and operating income growth of 40% year-over-year. | • | Our Drilling and Evaluation division delivered 6% revenue and 3% operating income improvement year-over-year, reflecting the emerging recovery in the international markets. | • | We continued our focus on delivering strong cash flow and returinghad $1.5 billion of capital expenditures, resulting in over$900 million of free cash flow.

In 2017, Mr. Miller received a one-time stock award in connection with his promotion to President and significantly below the support we have received in the past. In response, we contacted shareholders representing more than 52% of our outstanding common stock and met with approximately 31% of those shareholders. We solicited their feedback on company strategy and performance, corporate governance, executive compensation, sustainability, and other topics.

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, which is set by the entire Board of Directors. As part of its annual process, the Committee works closely with senior management (as appropriate) and itsthe 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. Role of the CEO
The CEO does not provide recommendations concerning his own compensation, nor is he present when his compensation is discussed by the Committee. The Committee, with input from its independent compensation consultant, discusses the elements of his compensation in executive session and makes a recommendation to all of the non-management Directors for discussion and final approval. At the Committee’s request, a member of our management team may attend the executive session to answer questions from the Committee. The CEO, with input from the Committee’s independent compensation consultant, assists the Committee in setting compensation for the other NEOs. The following recommendations are made to the Committee for each NEO:
• | Base salary adjustments, taking into account comparator peer group data, and the NEO’s individual performance and role within the Company. | • | Performance goals, metrics, and reward schedules for incentive opportunities under our Annual Performance Pay Plan and Performance Unit Program, with performance targets being set relative to the projected business cycle and business plan. | • | Restricted stock and stock option awards made under the Stock and Incentive Plan, including developing and providing specific recommendations to the Committee on the aggregate number and types of shares to be awarded annually, reviewing the rationale and guidelines for annual stock awards, and recommending changes to the grant types, when appropriate. | • | Retirement awards, which are calculated by an external actuary, under the Halliburton Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or SERP. |

Use of Independent Consultants and Advisors The Committee engaged Pearl Meyer as its independent compensation consultant during 2018.2019. Pearl Meyer does not provide any other services to us. The primary responsibilities of the independent compensation consultant were 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 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 in the design, metrics, interaction between, incentive plans, or administration of the incentive plans. | HALLIBURTON | 2020Proxy Statement | 31 |
Role of Benchmarking, Peer Companies, and Market Data The Committee regularly assesses the market competitiveness of the Company’s executive compensation program based on data from a comparator peer group. The companies comprising the comparator peer group are selected based on the following considerations: • | Market capitalization; | • | Revenue and number of employees; | • | Global impact and reach; and | • | Industry affiliation. |
Industry affiliation includes companies that are involved in the oil and natural gas and energy services industries. The comparator peer group is reviewed annually by the Committee to ensure relevance, with data provided to the Committee by the independent compensation consultant. The 20182019 comparator peer group was composed of the following peer companies within the energy industry, as well as selected companies representing general industry. This peer group was utilized to determine market levels of total compensation for the 2018 calendar2019 plan year and was unchanged from 2017:2018: 3M Company | Hess Corporation | Anadarko Petroleum Corporation | Honeywell International Inc. | Apache Corporation | Johnson Controls International plc | Baker Hughes a GE Company | National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Caterpillar Inc. | Occidental Petroleum Corporation | ConocoPhillips | Raytheon Company | Deere and Company | Schlumberger Limited | 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 months 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 50thpercentile 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, including the Black-Scholes model used to value stock option grants.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 that 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 75thpercentiles of the comparator peer group to current compensation for each NEO. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 32 | |
Pay for Performance Analysis As part of its analysis, the Committee reviews one-, three-, and five-year pay for performance against our performance peer group as identified in the section entitled “Long-term Incentives”. The review examines the degree of alignment between our ROCE performance compared to the ROCE performance of our performance peer group and our CEO’s realizable compensation relative to the realizable compensation of the CEOs in our comparator peer group. Total realizable compensation consisted of the following: • | base salary paid; | • | cash incentive payouts; | • | in-the-money value of stock options grants during the one-, three-, orand five-year periodperiods valued as of December 31, 2017;2018; | • | face value of restricted stock grants during the one-, three-, orand five-year periodperiods valued as of December 31, 2017;2018; and | • | for performance-based awards, (i) target value for awards still outstanding as of December 31, 2017,2018, and (ii) realized value for performance periods beginning and ending within the one-, three-, orand five-year period. periods. |
This analysis supported the Committee’s determination that our pay and performance are appropriately aligned.

Determination of CEO and NEO Target Total Compensation When determining target total compensation for the CEO, the Committee takes into consideration competitive market pay levels for the CEOs in the comparator peer group. The 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.

DEVELOPMENT OF MANAGEMENT Exposed the next generation of management to the Board, further enhanced the management/employee succession process, and focused senior management on talent development and diversity initiatives Other NEO compensation is determined similar to that of the CEO 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. In fact, over thirty of our former executives have departed to become CEOs and/or senior executives of other oilfield services companies. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 34 | |
20182019 Executive Compensation Outcomes
Base Salary The Committee generally targets base salaries at the median of the comparator peer group. The 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 Committee approved the following base salary adjustments effective January 1, 2018:2019: • | Mr. Miller received a 7.7%7.1% increase in annual base salary ($1,300,0001,400,000 to $1,400,000)$1,500,000) to align his base salary with the market median of our comparator peer group; | • | Mr. RaineyLoeffler received a 4.8%73.3% increase in annual base salary ($835,000375,000 to $875,000) based on performance and$650,000) in recognition of his promotion to more closely align with his internal peer; andCFO in November 2018. While this adjustment was significant, it still positions Mr. Loeffler’s salary below the market median for a CFO role. As per its normal practice, the Committee intends to bring Mr. Loffler’s base salary to the market median over a multi-year period. | • | Mr. WeberCarre received a 7.7%6.7% increase in annual base salary ($650,000750,000 to $700,000)$800,000) to bringposition his base salary closer toat the market median of our comparator peer group.group; and | • | Mr. Rainey received a 4.0% increase in annual base salary ($875,000 to $910,000) based on performance and internal equity. |
The Committee approved the following base salary adjustments effective February 1, 2019: Mr. Loeffler’sRichard received a 16.0% increase in annual base salary was increased($625,000 to $375,000 on January 1, 2018. $725,000) in recognition of his promotion to President – Western Hemisphere. Mr. Richard’s salary is still positioned below the market median for his role. The Committee intends to bring Mr. Richard’s base salary to the market median over a multi-year period. At its regular December 2019 meeting, the time, he was not an executive officerCompensation Committee determined that base salaries for our NEOs would remain unchanged for 2020, with the exceptions of Messrs. Loeffler and his compensation was not determined byRichard, both of whom received the Committee.second half of their two-year promotion-related increases. Short-term (Annual) Incentive The Annual Performance Pay Plan is designed to reward executives and other key members of management for improving financial results that drive the creation of economic value for our shareholders and provide a means to connect individual cash compensation directly to our performance. It is administered in accordance with the terms of the Stock and Incentive Plan. The Annual Performance Pay Plan provides an incentive to our NEOs to generate more earnings than normally expected by the shareholdersinvestors who have provided us with capital to grow our business. We measureFor 2019, we measured achievement of this objective using Cash Value Added, or CVA. CVA is a financial measurement that balances two metrics to measuredemonstrates the amount of economic value added to our business. The Committee selected CVA as the financial measure upon which to basefor our Annual Performance Pay Plan because it is a key financial measure on which we set our performance expectations for the year and we believe it is a proven driver of value creation for our shareholders. TheHowever, the Committee also considers other business performance factors that are important to our shareholders,investors, including health, safety, environment, and service quality, in determining the final payout amounts under the Annual Performance Pay Plan. Net Operating Profit After Taxes–Capital Charge= CVA |
| HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 35 | |
At the beginning of each plan year, the Committee approves an incentive award schedule that equates levels of CVA performance with cash reward opportunities. The performance goals range from “Threshold” to “Target” to “Maximum”. Threshold reflects the minimum CVA performance level which must be achieved in order for any award to be earned and Maximum reflects the maximum awards that can be earned. 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 the relative performance to our competitors. Given the cyclical nature of our business, our performance goals vary from year to year, which can similarly impact the difficulty in achieving the goals. CVA is computed monthly and aggregated throughout the calendar year. Adjustments in the calculation of CVA may, at times, be approved by the Committee and can include the treatment of unusual items that may have impacted our actual results. With the exception of Mr. Loeffler, who was not an executive officer at the time, theThe Committee set the 20182019 performance goals for our NEOs based on company-wide consolidated CVA results. Threshold CVA was based on 90% of planned Operating Income, Target CVA on 100% of planned Operating Income, and Maximum CVA on 110% of planned Operating Income. Net Operating Profit After Taxes was calculated excluding charges related to Venezuela asset impairment, as the impact of this item was unknown when the targets were set in February 2018.
The Committee set the 20182019 award levels, targeted to the market median, for our NEOs based on the company-wide consolidated CVA results. AsThe performance goals for the 2019 plan year are noted in the table below, the Company created shareholder value by generating earnings of $788 million in excess of our cost of capital in 2018.below: Metric | Threshold | Target | Maximum | Actual | CVA | $3855 M | $63157 M | $876238 M | -$7882,208 M |
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 CVA performance determines the dollar amount of incentive compensation payable to participants following completion of the plan year. The Committee set incentive award opportunities under the plan as follows: NEO | | Threshold | | Target | | Maximum | Mr. Miller | | 60% | | 150% | | 300% | Mr. Loeffler(1) | | 16% | | 40% | | 80% | Mr. Brown | | 44% | | 110% | | 220% | Mr. Rainey | | 44% | | 110% | | 220% | Mr. Lesar | | 50% | | 125% | | 250% | Mr. Weber | | 40% | | 100% | | 200% |
(1) | Mr. Loeffler was promoted to Chief Financial Officer on November 12, 2018, and he was not an executive officer when the incentive award opportunities were set by the Committee. |
NEO | Threshold | Target | Maximum | Mr. Miller | 60% | 150% | 300% | Mr. Loeffler | 40% | 100% | 200% | Mr. Carre | 40% | 100% | 200% | Mr. Rainey | 44% | 110% | 220% | Mr. Richard | 44% | 110% | 220% |
Threshold, Target, and Maximum opportunity dollar amounts can be found in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal 20182019 table. Because the 2019 CVA actual results were below Threshold, our NEOs did not receive a CVA payout. Over the past ten years, the Annual Performance Pay Plan achieved Maximum performance levels five times, and Target performance levels two times, and fell short of the Threshold performance level three times, resulting in no payout. 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 perspective and commitment. Long-term incentives represent the largest component of total executive compensation opportunity. Our Stock and Incentive Plan provides for a variety of cash and stock-based awards, including restricted stock and units, nonqualified and incentive stock options, performance shares and units, stock appreciation rights, and stock value equivalents. Under the Stock and Incentive Plan, the Committee may, at its discretion, select from among these types of awards to establish individual long-term incentive awards.
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 maintaining an incentive to meet performance goals. For 2018, wethe 2019 plan year, the Committee used the following combination of equity vehicles for long-term incentive vehicles:grants: www.halliburton.com | Vehicle | HALLIBURTON | 2019Proxy Statement36Weighting | |

All options are priced at the closing stock price on the date the grant is approved by the Committee. |
www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 2020Proxy Statement | 36 |
In determining the size of long-term incentive awards, the Committee first considers market data for comparable positions and then may adjust the awards upwards or downwards based on the Committee’s review of internal equity. This can result in positions of similar magnitude and pay receiving awards of varying size. The December 5, 2018, restricted stock and stock option grants awarded by the Committee to each NEO were based primarily on market data and wereAwards are targeted to the market median. Our internalAs 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. For the 2019 plan year, the Compensation Committee approved restricted stock nomination process under the Stock and Incentive Plan ensures that all award grant dates are prospective and not retroactive. For NEOs, the grant date is the day the Committee determines annual compensation actions, generallystock option grants in December of each year.2018. Exercise prices for stock options are set at the closing stock price on the date the grant is approved.
2016For the 2020 plan year, grants of restricted stock for NEOs were approved by the Compensation Committee at its December 2019 meeting using the new equity mix (70% performance units and 30% restricted stock). We also added a TSR modifier that increases or decreases the long-term incentives payout based on our relative TSR performance. Stock Options were eliminated for NEOs beginning with the 2020 plan year.
2017 Cycle Performance Unit Program The 20162017 cycle Performance Unit Program 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. Based on feedback from our shareholders and to more closely align with our strategy of delivering industry-leading returns across the business cycle, in 2015, we modified the metrics in our Performance Unit Program to 100% relative ROCE. The program measures ROCE on a relative basis to the results of our performance peer group used for the Performance Unit Program. 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:
Why ROCE? | | Highly correlated to stock price performance over thelong-term, applying drivers that management can directlyinfluence. | | | Overwhelmingly supported by our shareholders. | | Aligned with our strategy of delivering industry-leadingreturns across the business cycle. | | | Eliminates the subjectivity inherent in setting long-termabsolute targets in a cyclical industry. | | Reinforces the Company’s objective for sustained long-termperformance and value creation. | | | Provides our management team with clear line of sight tolong-term financial results. |
The performance peer group used for the Performance Unit Program is comprised of oilfield equipment and services companies and domestic and international exploration and production companies. This peer group is used for the Performance Unit Program 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 peer group, disclosed in our 20172018 proxy statement, was used for the 20162017 cycle of the Performance Unit Program. The table below shows the incentive opportunity based on Halliburton’s ROCE performance relative to that of our performance peer group. The 20162017 cycle of the Performance Unit Program ended on December 31, 2018,2019, and we achieved ROCE of 0.73%3.36%, which was above the 75thpercentile of our performance peer group’s ROCE of 0.61%1.28% and yielded an award paid at 200% of the target opportunity level. In addition to top quartile performance relative to our performance peer group over the three-year cycle, our 2018 ROCE was greater than 10%, which exceeded our cost of capital. | HALLIBURTON | 2020Proxy Statement | 37 |

The NEOs received payments in 20192020 as set forth in the Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation column in the Summary Compensation Table. The program allows for rewards to be paid in cash, stock, or a combination of cash and stock. Over the past ten years, the program has achieved Maximum performance levels four times, Target levels five times, and Threshold levels one time. | HALLIBURTON | 2019 Proxy Statement37 | |
2018 Cycle Performance Unit Program
The Committee set the performance measures on a 100% relative ROCE basis for the 20182019 cycle of the Performance Unit Program, with performance measured for the three-year period ending December 31, 2020.2021. The performance peer group for the 20182019 cycle Performance Unit Program is the same as the performance peer group used for the 20172018 cycle Performance Unit Program and consists of the following companies: Anadarko Petroleum Corporation | Nabors Industries Ltd. | Apache Corporation | National Oilwell Varco, Inc. | Baker Hughes a GE Company | Schlumberger Limited | Chesapeake Energy Corporation | Superior Energy Services, Inc | Devon Energy Corporation | TechnipFMC | Hess Corporation | Transocean Ltd. | Marathon Oil Corporation | Weatherford International plc | Murphy Oil Corporation | The Williams Companies, Inc. |
At the end of the three-year performance period, the ROCE of the Company and the performance peer group will be calculated and percentiles will be determined. The table below details the incentive opportunity based on Halliburton’s performance relative to the performance peer group. If Halliburton’s relative performance ranking is below the 25thpercentile, there will be no payment. If Halliburton’s relative performance ranking is between the 25th, 50th, and 75thpercentiles, the payout will be interpolated accordingly. 20182019 Cycle -– Performance Matrix

Individual incentive opportunities are established based on market references and the NEO’s role within the organization. The Threshold, Target, and Maximum columns under the heading Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal 20182019 table indicate the potential payout for each NEO under the Performance Unit Program for the 20182019 cycle. The potential payouts are performance driven and completely at risk. Actual payout amounts, if any, will not be determined until the three-year cycle closes on December 31, 2020.2021. Restricted Stock and Stock Options
Our restricted stock and stock option awards are granted under the Stock and Incentive Plan and are listed in the Grants of Plan-Based Awards in Fiscal 2018 table.
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 Committee. Shares of restricted stock receive dividend or dividend equivalent payments.
Stock option awards vest over a three-year graded vesting period with 331/3% of the grant vesting each year. All options are priced at the closing stock price on the date the grant is approved by the Committee.
The stock and option award columns in the Summary Compensation Table reflect the aggregate grant date fair value of the restricted stock and option awards for each NEO granted during 2018.
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan The objective of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan, or 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 includeinclude: (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 Committee in advance of calculating any awards. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 38 | |
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 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 his qualified benefit plans resulting from Company contributions at retirement and $4 million in his 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 Committee. However, participation one year does not guarantee future participation. In 2018,2019, the Committee authorized retirement allocations under the SERP to all NEOs as listed in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation and the 20182019 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation.Compensation table. All of the NEOs, except Messrs.Mr. Loeffler, and Weber, are fully vested in their respective account balances. Mr. Weber’s SERP account was forfeited upon his resignation. Balances for active and terminated participants earn interest at an annual rate of 5% and 10%, respectively. Other Executive Benefits and Policies 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. 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 in order 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 2018,2019, none of our NEOs participated in this plan. Messrs. Brown, Rainey and LesarRichard have account balances from participation in the plan in prior years. Messrs. Miller, Loeffler, and WeberCarre are not participants in the plan. Further details can be found in the 20182019 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. Benefit Restoration Plan The Halliburton Company Benefit Restoration Plan provides a vehicle to restore qualified plan benefits which are reduced as a result of limitations on contributions imposed under the Internal Revenue Code 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 Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Awards are made annually to those who meet these criteria and earned 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 120% AFR rate, provided the interest rate shall be no less than 6% per annum or greater than 10% per annum. Because the 120% AFR rate was below the 6% minimum interest threshold, plan participants earned interest at an annual rate of 6% in 2018.2019. In 2018,2019, all NEOs except Mr. Weber received awards under this plan in the amounts included in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation and the 20182019 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 39 | |
Perquisites Effective January 1, 2019, we eliminated a number of ourseveral perquisites including tax gross ups for personal use of corporate aircraft, executive physical examinations, and financial planning reimbursements. We also eliminated reimbursements for country club dues with the exceptionfor all of a prior commitment to Mr. Brown which expires upon his retirement in 2019. A taxable benefit for executive financial planning was provided in 2018 with the amount dependent on the NEO’s level within the company. This benefit does not include tax return preparation. It is paid, only if used, on a reimbursable basis. This benefit was discontinued in 2019.our NEOs.
We do not provide cars to our NEOs. However, a car and part-time driver were used by Messrs. Miller and Lesaris available for Mr. Miller’s limited use as needed for security purposes and so that theyhe can work while in transit to meet customer and our needs.customers or attend business-related functions. We provided security at the personal residences of Messrs. Miller Lesar, and WeberLoeffler during 2018.2019. As a result of the recommendations provided by an independent, third-party security consultant, the Board has determined that Messrs.Mr. Miller and Lesar (before his retirement) must use company aircraft for all travel. The security study also recommends that their spouseshis spouse and children use company-provided aircraft. The only personal use of the company aircraft in 20182019 for other NEOs is for spousal and dependent travel on select business trips. Mr. Rainey is an expatriate under our long-term expatriate business practice. A differential is commonly paid to expatriates in assignment locations where the cost of goods and services is greater than the cost for the same goods and services in the expatriate’s home country. Differentials are determined by Mercer/ORC, a third-party consultant. Mr. Rainey receives certain assignment allowances, including a goods and services differential and host country housing and utilities. He also participates in our tax equalization program, which neutralizes the tax effect of the international assignment and approximates the tax obligation the expatriate would pay in his home country. Specific amounts for the above-mentioned perquisites are detailed for each NEO in the Supplemental Table: All Other Compensation. Clawback Policy We have a clawback policy under which we will seek to recoup incentive compensation in all appropriate cases paid to, awarded, or credited for the benefit of any of our executive officers, which include all NEOs, if and to the extent that: • | The amount of incentive compensation was calculated based on the achievement of financial results that were subsequently reduced due to a restatement of our financial results; | • | The officer engaged in fraudulent conduct that caused the need for the restatement; and | • | The amount of incentive compensation that would have been paid to, awarded, or credited for the benefit of the officer, had our financial results been properly reported, would have been lower than the amount actually paid, awarded, or credited. |
The policy also provides that we will seek to recoup incentive compensation in all appropriate cases paid to, awarded to, or credited for the benefit of any of our executive officers, which include all NEOs, and certain other senior officers, if and to the extent that: • | It is determined that, in connection with the performance of that officer’s duties, he or she breached his or her fiduciary duty by knowingly or recklessly engaging in a material violation of a U.S. federal or state law, or failed to supervise an employee who substantially participated in such a violation; or | • | The officer is named as a defendant in a law enforcement proceeding for having breached his or her fiduciary duty by knowingly or recklessly engaging in a material violation of a U.S. federal or state law, the officer disagrees with the allegations relating to the proceeding, and either (i) we initiate a review and determine that the alleged action is not indemnifiable or (ii) the officer does not prevail at trial, enters into a plea arrangement, agrees to the entry of a final administrative or judicial order imposing sanctions, or otherwise admits to the violation in a legal proceeding. |
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. The policy also provides that, to the extent permitted by applicable law and not previously disclosed in a filing with the SEC, we will disclose in our proxy statement the circumstances of any recoupment arising under the policy or that there has not been any recoupment pursuant to the policy for the prior calendar year. There was no recoupment under the policy in 2018.2019. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 40 | |
Stock Ownership Requirements We have stock ownership requirements for our executive officers, which include all the 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 an amount of Halliburton common stock equal to or in excess of three times their annual base salary, and all other executive officers are required to own an amount of Halliburton common stock equal to or in excess of two times their annual base salary. The Committee reviews their holdings, which include restricted shares 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, as 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. During this time period, any stock option exercise must be an exercise and hold. As of December 31, 2018,2019, all NEOs met the requirements. Hedging and Pledging Policy OurWe have a policy under which our Directors and executive officers, which include all NEOs, and certain senior officers are prohibited fromfrom:
• | 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 to Halliburton securities andderivative security as collateral for any form of indebtedness. Additionally, the pledging of Halliburton securities.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. |
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 may include severance, accelerated vesting of restricted stock and stock options, payments under cash-based short- and long-term incentive plans, 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. Impact of Regulatory Requirements on Compensation Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code 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 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. Prior to this change in the tax law, our Stock and Incentive Plan enabled qualification of stock options, stock appreciation rights, and performance share awards, as well as short- and long-term cash performance plans under Section 162(m). Our policy is to utilize available tax deductions whenever appropriate and consistent with our compensation philosophy. When designing and implementing our executive compensation program, the Committee considers all relevant factors, including tax deductibility of compensation, and will consider the federal tax deductibility of compensation in excess of $1 million a year to the extent doing so is consistent with our executive compensation objectives. | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 41 | |

market earnings is the difference between the interest rate as stated in the applicable nonqualified plan document and the Internal Revenue Service Long-Term 120% AFR rate as of December 31, 2018.2019. The 120% AFR rate used for determining above-market earnings in 20182019 was 3.98%2.52%. Halliburton Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Above-Market Earnings. The current interest rate for active participant accounts in the Halliburton Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan is 5% as defined by the plan document.

As indicated by footnote (1), the opportunities for each NEO under the 20182019 cycle Performance Unit Program if the Threshold, Target, or Maximum levels are achieved are reflected under Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards. The potential payouts are performance driven and completely at risk. For more information on the 20182019 cycle Performance Unit Program, refer to Long-term Incentives in Compensation Discussion and Analysis. As indicated by footnote (2), the opportunities for each NEO under the 20182019 Halliburton Annual Performance Pay Plan are also reflected under Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards. The potential payouts are performance driven and completely at risk. For more information on the 20182019 Halliburton Annual Performance Pay Program, refer to Short-term (Annual) Incentive in Compensation Discussion and Analysis. No amounts were earned by our NEOs under the 2019 Halliburton Annual Performance Pay Plan because the minimum threshold performance level was not achieved. All restricted stock and nonqualified stock option awards are granted under the Stock and Incentive Plan. The awards listed under All Other Stock Awards: Number of Shares of Stock or Units and under All Other Option Awards: Number of Securities Underlying Options were awarded to each NEO on the date indicated by the Compensation Committee. The restricted stock grants awarded to the NEOs during 20182019 are subject to a graded vesting schedule of 20% per year over 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 $0.18 per share during 2018.2019. 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. Nonqualified stock options granted in 2018 vest over a three-year graded vesting period with 331/3% of the options vesting each year. All options are priced at the fair market value on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model. There are no voting or dividend rights unless the NEO exercises the options and acquires the shares.

Mr. Brown’s employment agreement provides that if the agreement is terminated by Mr. Brown for good reason or by death, disability, retirement, or early retirement or his employment is terminated by us for any reason other than cause or a fiduciary violation, all restrictions on restricted stock and units, other than a restricted stock unit grant valued at $5 million (the Brown equity grant), will lapse. In addition, provided that Mr. Brown remains employed by us through December 31, 2019, or his employment is earlier terminated for any of the above reasons other than early retirement, he will receive one-half of the value of the Brown equity grant in the form of Halliburton common stock. The remaining one-half of that equity grant will be valued on the termination date and paid in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of his termination, provided that he remains in compliance with his continuing obligations under the employment agreement, which include three-year non-compete and non-solicitation provisions. In addition, in the case of a termination by Mr. Brown for good reason or termination by the company for any reason other than cause or a fiduciary violation, Mr. Brown will receive a lump sum cash payment equal to two years of his base salary then in effect.
Mr. Lesar retired as Executive Chairman on December 31, 2018. In accordance with his employment agreement, his participation continues for the 2017 and 2018 cycles of the Performance Unit Program, all restrictions on his restricted stock lapsed, he received a lump sum cash payment of $2 million, and one-half of the restricted stock unit for 326,229 shares (the Lesar equity grant) was distributed in the form of Halliburton common stock.

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 granted 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 (a Qualifying Termination), the following will occur automatically: • | any outstanding options and stock appreciation rights shall become immediately vested and fully exercisable;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 receivesshall receive a payment equal to the maximumtarget amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to receive, prorated through the date of the change-in-control;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 an immediate cash payment equal to the maximum dollartarget amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to for the year, prorated through the date of the change-in-control;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 an immediate cash payment equal to the maximumtarget amount of the award he or she would have been entitled to receive, for the performance cycle, prorated through the date of the change-in-control;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 cash payment equal to the incentiveaward 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. |
As noted in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Stock and Incentive Plan was amended on February 13, 2019, subject to shareholder approval, to implement a new double-trigger vesting provision upon a change-of-control.

Resignation.Resignation is defined as leaving employment with us voluntarily, without having attained early or normal retirement status (see the applicable sections below for information on what constitutes these statuses). Upon resignation, the following actions will occur for the NEO’s various elements of compensation: • | Severance Pay. No severance would be paid to the NEO. | • | Restricted Stock. Any restricted stock holdings would be forfeited upon the date of resignation. Restricted stock holdings information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 20182019 table. | • | Stock Options. The NEO must exercise outstanding, vested options within 30 - 90 days after the NEO’s resignation 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 20182019 table. | • | Performance Units. The NEO would not be eligible to receive payments under the Performance Unit Program. | • | Nonqualified Plans. The NEO is entitled to any vested benefits under the applicable nonqualified plans as shown in the 20182019 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table. Payments from the Halliburton Company Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and Halliburton Company 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 Halliburton 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. | • | Health Benefits. The NEO is not eligible for the $12,000 credit to assist in paying for retiree medical costs. |
Early Retirement.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 points. 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). Early retirement eligibility is a condition that must be met before the Compensation Committee will consider retention of stock 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. Early Retirement (Without Approval).The impact on the NEO’s various elements of compensation is the same as described under Resignation except as follows: • | Health Benefits. A NEO that was age 40 or older as of December 31, 2004, and qualifies for early retirement under our health and welfare plans, which require that the NEO has attained age 55 with ten years of service or that the NEO’s age and years of service equals 70 points with a minimum of ten years of service, is eligible for a $12,000 credit toward retiree medical costs incurred prior to age 65. The credit is only applicable if the NEO chooses Halliburton retiree medical coverage. This benefit is amortized as a monthly credit applied to the cost of retiree medical coverage based on the number of months from the time of early retirement to age 65. For example, if a NEO is 10 years or 120 months away from age 65 at the time of the NEO’s early retirement, the NEO will receive a monthly credit in the amount of $100 ($12,000/120 months). Should the NEO choose not to elect coverage with Halliburton after the NEO’s separation, the NEO would not receive any cash in lieu of the credit. |
Early Retirement (With Approval).The following actions will occur for the NEO’s various elements of compensation: • | Severance Pay. No severance would be paid to the NEO. | • | 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 20182019 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 10 years from the grant award date. Stock option information can be found in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End 20182019 table. | • | Performance Units. The NEO will participate on a prorated basis for any Performance Unit Program 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. | • | Nonqualified Plans. The NEO is entitled to any vested benefits under the applicable nonqualified plans as shown in the 20182019 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table.

The NEO is not eligible for the $12,000 credit to assist in paying for retiree medical costs. |

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 Normal Retirement except as follows: • | Severance Pay. Severance is paid according to terms of the applicable employment agreement. Messrs. Miller, Loeffler, Brown, and RaineyEach NEO would receive severance in the amount of two times base salary at the time of termination. | • | Performance Units.

CEO Pay Ratio For 2018,2019, the annual total compensation of our CEO was 193146 times the median of the annual total compensation of all employees, based on annual total compensation of $17,016,991$12,770,467 for the CEO and $88,244$87,289 for the median employee. There was no material change in our employee demographics and compensation structure; therefore, the median employee identified in 2017 was utilized in our 20182019 analysis. What follows is a description of the methodology used from 2017. This disclosure is based on an October 1, 2017, employee population of 52,833, of which 21,862 were U.S. employees and 30,971 were non-U.S. employees. We excluded from this employee population 2,637 non-U.S. employees from 47 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 50,196. Non-U.S. Employee Country Exclusions | Country | Headcount | | Country | Headcount | | Country | Headcount | | Country | Headcount | Ecuador | 442 | | Cameroon | 55 | | Chile | 17 | | Ukraine | 4 | Azerbaijan | 417 | | Panama | 51 | | Spain | 14 | | Hungary | 3 | Kazakhstan | 378 | | Poland | 48 | | Belgium | 11 | | Kenya | 3 | Congo | 158 | | Romania | 46 | | Philippines | 11 | | Uganda | 3 | Germany | 113 | | France | 35 | | Mozambique | 10 | | Switzerland | 2 | Italy | 113 | | Papua New Guinea | 31 | | Turkmenistan | 7 | | Equatorial Guinea | 2 | Netherlands | 110 | | Bangladesh | 28 | | Tanzania | 7 | | Turkey | 2 | Bolivia | 109 | | Denmark | 27 | | Austria | 6 | | South Africa | 2 | Trinidad & Tobago | 84 | | Peru | 23 | | Cyprus | 6 | | Albania | 1 | Ghana | 64 | | Suriname | 23 | | Israel | 5 | | Bulgaria | 1 | New Zealand | 59 | | Cote d’Ivoire | 21 | | South Korea | 4 | | Gabon | 1 | Vietnam | 57 | | Japan | 19 | | Myanmar | 4 | | | |
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, 2017, 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. The annual total compensation for our CEO includes both the amount reported in the “Total” column of our 20182019 Summary Compensation Table, $16,999,898,$12,753,614, and the estimated value of our CEO’s health and welfare benefits, $17,093.$16,853. 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 | 20192020Proxy Statement | 5553 | |

The 25,000,00016,000,000 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 2021 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 2021.

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 33,020,80129,790,261 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 amendment and restatement of the Plan provides that 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. |
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.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 cash-based performance awards have been made under the Plan. | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 5755 | |
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. Non-management Directors are eligible to participate in the Plan. As of January 1, 2019,2020, approximately 12,00014,000 employees (including employees and executive officers) and eightnine 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 may not become exercisable in 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 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 may not become exercisable in 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 term of a stock appreciation right grant 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 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. During the period of restriction, recipients will have the right to receive dividends and the right to vote the shares. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 5856 | |
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 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 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 Stock and Incentive 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. |
The Compensation Committee may select one criterion or multiple criteria for measuring performance. The measurement may be based on our overall corporate performance, based on subsidiary or business unit performance, or based on 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 may not vest earlier 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. 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. The Compensation Committee will also determine the effect of a recipient’s death, disability, retirement, or other termination of service during the applicable period. | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 5957 | |
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 Holder 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 optionee or participant, alter or impair rights under any options or other 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 references to the full text of the Plan. A copy of the Plan can be found in Appendix A to this proxy statement. Change-in-Control Prior to the amendment and restatement of the Plan, awards would automatically vest upon the occurrence of a corporate change. Under the amended and restated Plan, awardsAwards granted on or after February 13, 2019, are subject to double-trigger vesting, such that, if a participant experiences anis terminated due to involuntary termination without cause, a termination due to death, or disability, a termination for good reason (or(as defined in an employment agreement, or a similar constructive termination event, upon whichin each case, only if a severance benefit is payable), as provided for in a holder’spayable upon termination of employment agreement, if applicable,due to such event pursuant to an employment agreement) or another terminationother event as definedspecified in anthe 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. |
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. 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 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. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 20192020Proxy Statement | 6058 | |
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. 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. 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 deductwithhold any taxes required by law to be withheld in connection with any award. IRC Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code 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 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 expect that we will be able to structure future awards in a manner that complies with Section 409A. General/Vote Required The closing price of our common stock on March 18, 2019,20, 2020, as traded on the NYSE, was $28.87$5.05 per share. The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of Halliburton’s common stock represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter is needed to approve the proposal. | THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS AVOTE FORTHE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF THE HALLIBURTON COMPANY STOCK AND INCENTIVE PLAN. |

However, developments regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic may change this. We are sensitive to the public health concerns our shareholders may have and the protocols that federal, state, and local governments may impose. In the event it is not possible or advisable to hold our Annual Meeting in person, we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the meeting solely by means of remote communication. We may also need to change the date or the time of the meeting. Please monitor our website atwww.halliburton.comfor updated information. If you are planning to attend our meeting, please check the website one week prior to the meeting date. As always, we encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Annual Meeting.

The record date for determination of the shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting is the close of business on March 20, 2020. Our common stock, par value $2.50 per share, is our only class of capital stock that is outstanding. As of March 20, 2020, there were 873,350,914 shares of our 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 keep a complete list of shareholders entitled to vote at our principal executive offices for ten days before and will have the list available at the Annual Meeting. Our principal executive offices are 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. Except as set forth below, the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter will be the act of the shareholders. Shares for which a shareholder has elected to abstain on a matter will count for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum and, except as set forth below, will have the effect of a vote against the matter. Each Director shall be elected by the vote of the majority of the votes cast by holders of shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote in the election of Directors, provided that if the number of nominees exceeds the number of Directors to be elected and all shareholder-proposed nominees have not been withdrawn before the tenth (10th) day preceding the day we mail the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to shareholders for the Annual Meeting, the Directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the election of Directors. A majority of the votes cast means that the number of shares voted “for” a Director must exceed the number of votes cast “against” that Director; we will not count abstentions. As a condition to being nominated by the Board for continued service as a Director, each Director nominee has signed and delivered to the Board an irrevocable letter of resignation limited to and conditioned on that Director failing to achieve a majority of the votes cast at an election where Directors are elected by majority vote. For any Director nominee who fails to be elected by a majority of votes cast, where Directors are elected by majority vote, his or her irrevocable letter of resignation will be deemed tendered on the date the election results are certified. Such resignation shall only be effective upon acceptance by the Board. The election inspectors will treat broker non-vote shares, 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. In determining the outcome of any matter for which the broker does not have discretionary authority to vote, however, those shares will not have any effect on that matter. A broker may be entitled to vote those shares on other matters. In accordance with our confidential voting policy, no particular shareholder’s vote will be disclosed to our officers, Directors, or employees, except: • | as necessary to meet legal requirements and to assert claims for and defend claims against us; | • | when disclosure is voluntarily made or requested by the shareholder; | • | when the shareholder writes comments on the proxy card; or | • | in the event of a proxy solicitation not approved and recommended by the Board. |
The proxy solicitor, the election inspectors, and the tabulators of all proxies, ballots, and voting tabulations are independent and are not our employees. www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 2020Proxy Statement | 60 |

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.

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 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. | | | (b) | Award Period. The Committee shall establish the Restriction Period applicable to Stock Value Equivalent Awards; provided, however, that such Restriction Period shall not be less than the Minimum Criteria. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Stock Value Equivalent Awards may utilize the Minimum Criteria Exception. | | | (c) | Payment. Following the end of the determined period for a Stock Value Equivalent Award, the Holder of a Stock Value Equivalent Award shall be entitled to receive payment of an amount, not exceeding the maximum value of the Stock Value Equivalent Award, if any, based on the then vested value of the Award. Payment of a Stock Value Equivalent Award (i) shall be made in cash, (ii) shall be made in a lump sum or in installments as prescribed by the Committee in its sole discretion, and (iii) shall be based on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the payment date.

| | (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. |

| | 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. | | | 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. |
| | (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 |
www.halliburton.com | | HALLIBURTON | 2020Proxy Statement | A-8 |
| 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 |
| HALLIBURTON | 2019Proxy StatementA-8 | |
| 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. |
