Principal Terms of the Exchange Offers

These are offers (the “exchange offers”) by ConocoPhillips Company, a Delaware corporation (“CPCo,” or the “Company”), a wholly owned subsidiary of ConocoPhillips, a Delaware corporation (“COP” or the “Guarantor”), to exchange an equal principal amount of the respective series of CPCO’s 4.025% Notes due 2062 and 3.758% Notes due 2042, in each case fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor (collectively, the “Registered Notes”), for the outstanding unregistered Restricted Notes (as defined below), the offers of which have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

CPCo issued the unregistered 4.025% Notes due 2062 (CUSIP Nos. 20826FAY2 and U19476AB3) (the “Restricted 2062 Notes”) and 3.758% Notes due 2042 (CUSIP Nos. 20826FAW6 and U19476AA5) (the “Restricted 2042 Notes”), in each case fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor (collectively, the “Restricted Notes”), in March 2022 in several private offers pursuant to which such notes were exchanged for notes of CPCo, COP, Burlington Resources LLC and Burlington Resources Oil & Gas Company LP.

Each of the exchange offers expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 3, 2022, unless the Company extends one or more offers. You may withdraw tenders of Restricted Notes at any time prior to the expiration of the relevant exchange offer. The exchange offers are not subject to any condition other than that they will not violate applicable law or interpretations of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and no action or proceeding has been instituted or threatened in any court or by any governmental agency with respect to the exchange offers. The exchange offers are not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of Restricted Notes being tendered for exchange. Neither exchange offer is conditioned on the consummation of the other exchange offer.

Principal Terms of the Registered Notes

The terms of the Registered Notes to be issued in the exchange offers are substantially identical in all material respects to the terms of the Restricted Notes, except that the Registered Notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate for failure to comply with the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined herein). No public market currently exists for the Restricted Notes. We do not intend to list the Registered Notes on any securities exchange or to apply for quotation in any automated dealer quotation system, and, therefore, no active public market is anticipated.

The Registered Notes, like the Restricted Notes, will be senior, unsecured obligations of the Company, will rank equally with all other senior, unsecured debt of the Company, and will be structurally subordinated to the Company’s secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt and the secured and unsecured debt of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Guarantor’s guarantees will be the senior, unsecured obligations of the Guarantor, will rank equally with all other senior, unsecured debt obligations of the Guarantor, and will be structurally subordinated to the Guarantor’s secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt and the secured and unsecured debt obligations of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries (other than the Company).

You should carefully consider the risk factors beginning on page 9 of this prospectus before participating in these exchange offers.

Each broker-dealer that receives Registered Notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Registered Notes. The letter of transmittal states that, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Registered Notes received in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities. The Company and COP have agreed that, for a period of up to 180 days after the expiration time of the applicable exchange offer, if requested by one or more such broker-dealers, the Company and COP will amend or supplement this prospectus in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registered Notes by any such broker-dealers. See “Plan of Distribution.”

None of the SEC, any state securities commission or other regulatory agency has approved or disapproved of the Registered Notes or the exchange offers or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus is September 1, 2022.

THE EXCHANGE OFFERS

Background

In March 2022, CPCo issued the Restricted Notes as part of several private offers pursuant to which the Restricted Notes were exchanged for notes of CPCo, COP, Burlington Resources LLC and Burlington Resources Oil & Gas Company LP. CPCo is offering to issue the Registered Notes in exchange for the Restricted Notes to satisfy CPCo’s and COP’s obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of March 11, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), that CPCo and COP entered into with the dealer managers with respect to those private exchanges.

The exchange offers are intended to satisfy the rights granted to holders of the Restricted Notes in the Registration Rights Agreement. After the exchange offers are complete, holders of Restricted Notes will no longer be entitled to any exchange or registration rights with respect to the Restricted Notes.

Exchange Offers

We are offering to exchange the Registered Notes for a like principal amount of the applicable Restricted Notes of the same series, the offer of which has been registered under the Securities Act.

The Registered Notes will be substantially identical in all material respects to the Restricted Notes, except that the Registered Notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate for failure to comply with the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Restricted Notes may be exchanged only in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. You should read the discussion under the headings “The Registered Notes” and “Description of the Notes” for further information regarding the Registered Notes. You should also read the discussion under the heading “Terms of the Exchange Offers” for further information regarding the exchange offers and resale of the Registered Notes.

Resales

Based on interpretations by the staff of the SEC set forth in no-action letters issued to Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and Shearman & Sterling, the Company believes that the Registered Notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act; provided that you:

•

you are not an “affiliate” of the Company or COP, as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Procedures for Tendering the Restricted Notes

If you wish to accept and participate in the exchange offers, you must complete and submit the accompanying letter of transmittal, according to the instructions contained in this prospectus and the letter of transmittal, together with the Restricted Notes and any other required documents, to the exchange agent at the address set forth on the cover of the letter of transmittal. As you hold Restricted Notes through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) and wish to participate in the exchange offers, you must comply with the Automated Tender Offer Program (“ATOP”) procedures of DTC described herein.

By signing or agreeing to be bound by the letter of transmittal, or, in the case of book-entry transfer, an agent’s message in lieu of the letter of transmittal, you represent to the Company that, among other things:

•

any Registered Notes that you receive will be acquired in the ordinary course of business;

•

you have not engaged in, do not intend to engage in, and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the Registered Notes;

•

if you are a broker-dealer that will receive Registered Notes for your own account in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities, you will deliver a prospectus, as required by law, in connection with any resale of the Registered Notes; and

•

you are not an “affiliate” of the Company or COP, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

Special Procedures for Beneficial Owners

If you are a beneficial owner whose Restricted Notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender such Restricted Notes in the exchange offers, you should promptly contact the person in whose name the Restricted Notes are registered and instruct that person to tender on your behalf. If you wish to tender in the exchange offers on your own behalf, prior to completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering your Restricted Notes, you must either make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the Restricted Notes in your name or obtain a properly completed bond power from the person in whose name the Restricted Notes are registered. The transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time and may not be able to be completed prior to the expiration time.

If you are a beneficial owner that holds Restricted Notes through Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”), or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”), and wish to tender your Restricted Notes, contact Euroclear or Clearstream directly to ascertain the procedures for tendering Restricted Notes and comply with such procedures.

Withdrawal of Tenders

Tenders of the Restricted Notes pursuant to the exchange offers may be withdrawn at any time prior to the expiration time. To

TABLE OF CONTENTS

withdraw, you must send a written notice of withdrawal to the exchange agent at its address indicated under “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Exchange Agent” before the expiration time of the exchange offers.

Acceptance of the Restricted Notes and Delivery of the Registered Notes

If all of the conditions to the completion of these exchange offers are satisfied, the Company will accept any and all Restricted Notes that are properly tendered in these exchange offers and not properly withdrawn before the expiration time. The Company will return any Restricted Notes that the Company does not accept for exchange to its registered holder at the Company’s expense promptly after the expiration time. The Company will deliver the Registered Notes to the registered holders of Restricted Notes accepted for exchange promptly after the expiration time and acceptance of such Restricted Notes. See “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Acceptance of Restricted Notes for Exchange; Delivery of Registered Notes.”

Effect on Holders of the Restricted Notes

As a result of making, and upon acceptance for exchange of all validly tendered Restricted Notes pursuant to the terms of, the exchange offers, the Company and COP will have fulfilled a covenant contained in the Registration Rights Agreement. If a holder of Restricted Notes does not tender its Restricted Notes in the exchange offers, such holder will continue to hold their Restricted Notes and such holder will be entitled to all the rights and limitations applicable to the Restricted Notes in the Indenture (as defined in “The Registered Notes”), except for any rights under the Registration Rights Agreement that by their terms terminate upon the consummation of the exchange offers. See “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offers.”

Consequences of Failure to Exchange

All untendered Restricted Notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer provided for in the Restricted Notes and in the Indenture. In general, the Restricted Notes may not be offered or sold unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and applicable state or local securities laws. The trading market for your Restricted Notes will likely become more limited to the extent that other holders of Restricted Notes participate in the exchange offers. Following consummation of the exchange offers, the Company will not be required to register under the Securities Act any Restricted Notes that remain outstanding, except in the limited circumstances in which it is obligated to file a shelf registration statement for certain holders of Restricted Notes not eligible to participate in the exchange offers pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. If your Restricted Notes are not tendered and accepted in the exchange offers, it may become more difficult to sell or transfer the Restricted Notes. See “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Additional Obligations” and “Risk Factors.”

See “Risk Factors.” An active trading market may not develop for the Registered Notes, and we do not intend to apply to list the Registered Notes on any securities exchange or for quotation in any automated dealer quotation system.

Governing Law

New York law governs the Indenture and will govern the Registered Notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the Registered Notes involves risks, which risks are substantially equivalent to those applicable to the Restricted Notes exchanged therefor except that the Registered Notes will be registered. Prospective investors should consider carefully all of the information set forth in this prospectus, any free writing prospectus filed by us with the SEC and the documents incorporated by reference herein. In particular, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed below and under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of ConocoPhillips’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Cautionary Note Concerning Factors that May Affect Future Results.”

Risks Related to the Business

You should read and consider risk factors specific to ConocoPhillips’ businesses. These risks are described in Part I, Item 1A of ConocoPhillips’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. For the location of information incorporated by reference in this prospectus, see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

Risks Related to the Registered Notes

Our level of indebtedness and our ability to make payments on or service our indebtedness may adversely affect our financial and operating activities or our ability to incur additional debt.

As of June 30, 2022, COP and its subsidiaries had approximately $16.97 billion of outstanding consolidated indebtedness, consisting primarily of amounts outstanding under their unsubordinated unsecured notes. In the future we may increase our borrowings; however, our ability to do so will be subject to limitations imposed on us by our debt agreements. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future from operations, financings or asset sales. Our ability to generate cash is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. If we are not able to repay or refinance our debt as it becomes due, we may be forced to sell assets or take other disadvantageous actions, including reducing financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes; reducing our cash dividend rate and/or share repurchases; or dedicating an unsustainable level of our cash flow from operations to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness. In addition, our ability to withstand competitive pressures and to react to changes in the oil and gas industries could be impaired. If we fail to make required payments or otherwise default on our debt, the lenders who hold such debt also could accelerate amounts due, which could potentially trigger a default or acceleration of any of our other debt.

The Issuer, CPCo, is dependent, in part, on the earnings of its subsidiaries.

CPCo holds a portion of its assets through direct and indirect ownership interests in, and conducts part of its business through, its subsidiaries. CPCo relies, in part, on dividends or other distributions from its subsidiaries, together with cash generated from its own operations, to meet its obligations for payment of principal and interest on its outstanding debt obligations and corporate expenses. Consequently, CPCo’s ability to repay its debt when due, including the Registered Notes, may depend on the earnings of its subsidiaries, as well as its ability to receive funds from its subsidiaries through dividends or other payments or distributions. The ability of CPCo’s subsidiaries to pay dividends, repay intercompany debt or make other advances to it is subject to restrictions imposed by applicable laws (including bankruptcy laws), tax considerations and the terms of agreements governing its subsidiaries. CPCo’s foreign subsidiaries in particular may be subject to currency controls, repatriation restrictions, withholding obligations on payments to it, and other limits.

Because the Guarantor, as guarantor of the Registered Notes, is the direct parent entity of CPCo, the restrictions and constraints described above similarly apply to the Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations under the guarantee, including with respect to payments of principal and interest on the Registered Notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Registered Notes are structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities of CPCo’s subsidiaries.

The Registered Notes are CPCo’s general unsecured obligations and are not guaranteed by any of its subsidiaries. CPCo is a legal entity separate and distinct from its subsidiaries, and holders of the Registered Notes will be able to look only to CPCo or to the Guarantor, as guarantor of the Registered Notes, for payments on the Registered Notes. In addition, CPCo’s right to participate in any distribution of assets of any subsidiary upon its liquidation or reorganization or otherwise, and the ability of holders of the Registered Notes to benefit indirectly from that kind of distribution, is subject to the prior claims of creditors of that subsidiary, except to the extent that CPCo is recognized as a creditor of that subsidiary. All obligations of CPCo’s subsidiaries will have to be satisfied before any of the assets of such subsidiaries would be available for distribution, upon a liquidation or otherwise, to CPCo. Accordingly, the Registered Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities of CPCo’s subsidiaries and all liabilities of any of its future subsidiaries.

There are limited covenants in the Indenture. These covenants do not restrict our ability to incur additional unsecured debt or to take other actions that could negatively impact holders of the Registered Notes.

The Indenture contains limited covenants, including those restricting the Guarantor’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to incur certain debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions. The limitations on incurring debt secured by liens and sale and leaseback transactions contain certain exceptions. The covenants in the Indenture do not limit the amount of additional unsecured debt we or our subsidiaries may incur, including additional unsubordinated debt under the Indenture or indebtedness under new or existing credit facilities and do not require us to maintain any financial ratios or specific levels of net worth, revenue, income, cash flows or liquidity. We may opportunistically raise additional capital, including through additional indebtedness, to fund our capital plan and ongoing operations. Further, the Indenture does not contain provisions that would afford holders of the Registered Notes protection in the event of a sudden and significant decline in our credit quality or a takeover, recapitalization or highly leveraged or similar transaction. Our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to recapitalize, incur additional debt and take a number of other actions that are not limited by the terms of the Registered Notes could adversely affect our capital structure or credit rating or have the effect of diminishing our ability to make payments on the Registered Notes when due. In addition, we and our subsidiaries are not restricted by the terms of the Registered Notes from repurchasing common stock or any subordinated indebtedness that we may incur in the future.

The Registered Notes and the guarantee will be effectively junior to all secured indebtedness of CPCo and the Guarantor, respectively.

The Registered Notes are CPCo’s senior, unsecured obligations and rank equally with all its other unsecured indebtedness. The Registered Notes will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt CPCo may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. If CPCo defaults on the Registered Notes, becomes bankrupt, liquidates or reorganizes, any secured creditors could use its assets securing their debt to satisfy their secured debt before you would receive any payment on the Registered Notes. If the value of the collateral is not sufficient to pay any secured debt in full, CPCo’s secured creditors would share the value of its other assets, if any, with you and the holders of other claims against CPCo that rank equally with the Registered Notes.

The Guarantor’s guarantee is its senior, unsecured obligation and ranks equally with all its other unsecured indebtedness, and, accordingly, its guarantee will be effectively subordinated to any secured debt it may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.

There is no established trading market for any series of the Registered Notes and you may not be able to sell the Registered Notes.

Each series of Registered Notes is a new issue of securities with no established trading market. CPCo does not intend to apply for listing of any series of the Registered Notes on any securities exchange or for quotation on any automated dealer quotation system. If a trading market does not develop or is not maintained, holders of Registered Notes may find it difficult or impossible to resell their Registered Notes. If a trading market were to develop, the trading prices of the Registered Notes may be volatile, depending on

TABLE OF CONTENTS

many factors, including prevailing interest rates, our operating results and financial condition and the market for similar securities. The liquidity of any market for any series of the Registered Notes will depend on the number of holders of those notes, the interest of securities dealers in making a market in those notes and other factors. There can be no assurance regarding any future development of a trading market in the Registered Notes or the ability of holders of the Registered Notes to sell their notes at all or the price at which such holders may be able to sell their Registered Notes. Further, if markets were to develop, the market prices for the Registered Notes may be adversely affected by changes in our financial performance, changes in the overall market for similar securities and performance or prospects for companies in the same industry.

Changes in our credit ratings or the financial and credit markets could adversely affect the market price of the Registered Notes.

The market price of the Registered Notes will be based on a number of factors, including:

•

our ratings with major credit rating agencies;

•

the prevailing interest rates being paid by companies similar to us;

•

our operating results, financial condition, financial performance and future prospects; and

•

the overall condition of the financial and credit markets.

We cannot be sure that credit rating agencies will maintain their ratings on the Registered Notes. Credit rating agencies continually review their ratings for the companies that they follow, including us, and revise those ratings as they believe warranted. The credit rating agencies also evaluate the oil and gas industries as a whole and may change their credit rating for us based on their overall view of our businesses, including the prospects for our major end user markets. A negative change in our credit ratings could have an adverse effect on the price of the Registered Notes.

In addition, the condition of the financial and credit markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future. In the past, there have been significant disruptions in the global economy, including volatile credit and capital market conditions. Fluctuations in these factors or a worsening of market conditions could have an adverse effect on the price of the Registered Notes.

Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of your investment in the Registered Notes.

The credit ratings assigned to the Registered Notes are limited in scope and do not address all material risks relating to an investment in the Registered Notes, but rather reflect only the view of each rating agency at the time the rating is issued. Agency credit ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security. Each agency’s rating should be evaluated independently of any other agency’s rating. None of CPCo, COP, nor the Registered Notes trustee undertakes any obligation to maintain the ratings or to advise holders of Registered Notes of any change in ratings.

A downgrade in our credit ratings could materially adversely affect our business and the Registered Notes’ value.

The credit ratings assigned to our debt securities, including the Registered Notes, could change based on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, mergers, acquisitions or dispositions. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies, and there can be no assurance that any rating will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future.

Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings are under review for a downgrade or have been assigned a negative outlook, would likely increase our borrowing costs and affect our ability to incur new indebtedness or refinance our existing indebtedness, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and the market value of our common stock and outstanding debt securities, and could affect the market value of the Registered Notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We may choose to redeem some or all of the Registered Notes prior to maturity.

We may redeem the Registered Notes at times when prevailing interest rates may be relatively low. Accordingly, you may not be able to reinvest the amount received upon a redemption in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as that of the Registered Notes.

Risks Related to the Exchange Offers

You may have difficulty selling the Restricted Notes that you do not exchange.

If you do not exchange your Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers, you will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer of your Restricted Notes described in the legend on your Restricted Notes and we will not be required to offer another opportunity for you to exchange your Restricted Notes for registered notes, except in limited circumstances. The restrictions on transfer of your Restricted Notes arise because the Restricted Notes were issued under exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. In general, you may offer or sell the Restricted Notes only if they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or are offered and sold under an exemption from these requirements. We do not intend to register the Restricted Notes under the Securities Act. We may in the future seek to acquire untendered Restricted Notes in the open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plans to acquire any Restricted Notes that are not tendered in the exchange offers or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered Restricted Notes. To the extent Restricted Notes are tendered and accepted in the exchange offers, the trading market, if any, for the remaining Restricted Notes would likely be adversely affected. See “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Consequences of Failure to Exchange” for a discussion of the possible consequences of failing to exchange your Restricted Notes.

Because we anticipate that most holders of the Restricted Notes will elect to exchange their Restricted Notes, we expect that the liquidity of the market for any Restricted Notes remaining after the completion of the exchange offers will be substantially limited. Any Restricted Notes tendered and exchanged in the exchange offers will reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Restricted Notes of the applicable series outstanding. Following the exchange offers, if you do not tender your Restricted Notes you generally will not have any further registration rights, and your Restricted Notes will continue to be subject to certain transfer restrictions. Accordingly, the liquidity of the market for the Restricted Notes could be adversely affected.

Broker-dealers or noteholders may become subject to the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

Any broker-dealer that exchanges its Restricted Notes in the exchange offers for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the Registered Notes, or resells Registered Notes that were received by it for its own account in the exchange offers, may be deemed to have received restricted securities and may be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction by that broker-dealer. Any profit on the resale of the Registered Notes and any commission or concessions received by a broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act.

In addition to broker-dealers, any noteholder that exchanges its Restricted Notes in the exchange offers for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the Registered Notes may be deemed to have received restricted securities and may be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction by that noteholder.

You must comply with the exchange offer procedures in order to receive freely tradable Registered Notes.

Delivery of the Registered Notes in exchange for the Restricted Notes tendered and accepted for exchange pursuant to the exchange offers will be made only if such tenders comply with the exchange offer procedures described herein, including the timely receipt by the exchange agent of book-entry transfer of the Restricted Notes into such exchange agent’s account at DTC, as depositary, including an agent’s message. We are

TABLE OF CONTENTS

not required to notify you of defects or irregularities in tenders of Restricted Notes for exchange. The method of delivery of Restricted Notes and the letter of transmittal and all other required documents to the exchange agent is at the election and risk of the holders of the Restricted Notes.

Consummation of the exchange offers may not occur.

Each of the exchange offers is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. See “Terms of the Exchange Offers — Conditions to the Exchange Offers.” Even if the exchange offers are completed, they may not be completed on the timing described in this prospectus. Accordingly, holders participating in the exchange offers may have to wait longer than expected to receive their Registered Notes, during which time such holders will not be able to effect transfers of their Restricted Notes tendered in the exchange offers. Until we announce whether CPCo has accepted valid tenders of Restricted Notes for exchange pursuant to one of the exchange offers, no assurance can be given that such exchange offer will be completed. In addition, subject to applicable law and as provided in this prospectus, CPCo may, in its sole discretion, extend, re-open, amend, waive any condition of or terminate any of the exchange offers at any time before the announcement of whether CPCo will accept valid tenders of Restricted Notes for exchange pursuant to such exchange offer, which we expect to make as soon as reasonably practicable after the expiration time.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of the Registered Notes. In consideration for issuing the Registered Notes as contemplated in this prospectus, the Company will receive in exchange Restricted Notes in like principal amount, which will be cancelled, and, as such, issuing the Registered Notes will not result in any increase in our indebtedness.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

TERMS OF THE EXCHANGE OFFERS

For purposes of this section, references to “CPCo,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to ConocoPhillips Company and not any of its subsidiaries, and references to “COP” and the “Guarantor” refer to ConocoPhillips and not any of its subsidiaries.

Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offers

CPCo, COP and the dealer managers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with respect to the Restricted Notes on March 11, 2022. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, CPCo and COP agreed, among other things, to use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) file a registration statement on an appropriate registration form with respect to a registered offer to exchange each series of Restricted Notes for a like aggregate principal amount of Registered Notes, with terms substantially identical in all material respects to such series of Restricted Notes (except that the Registered Notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or any increase in annual interest rate) and (2) cause the registration statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act on or before June 30, 2023. In furtherance of the foregoing, COP and CPCo have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-266960) with respect to the exchange offers and the Registered Notes. COP and CPCo agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the exchange offer for each series of notes within 60 days after the registration statement is declared effective by the SEC. If the exchange offers may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last date of acceptance for exchange because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, or if the exchange offers are not consummated for any reason prior to the later of June 30, 2023 and the date on which, under certain circumstances, any holder of Restricted Notes so requests in writing, CPCo and COP will be required to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a shelf registration statement under the Securities Act which would cover resales of the Restricted Notes.

After the SEC declares this exchange offer registration statement effective, we will offer the Registered Notes in return for the Restricted Notes. Each of the exchange offers will remain open for no fewer than 20 business days (or longer if required by applicable law) after the date we electronically deliver notice of such exchange offer to the holders of the applicable Restricted Notes. For each Restricted Note surrendered to us pursuant to an exchange offer, the holder of the Restricted Note will receive a Registered Note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered Restricted Note.

Interest on the Registered Notes will accrue from the last interest payment date prior to the expiration time on which interest was paid on the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, which is expected to be September 15, 2022. The holders of the Restricted Notes that are accepted for exchange will be deemed to have waived the right to receive payment of accrued interest on those Restricted Notes from the last interest payment date prior to the expiration time on which interest was paid on such Restricted Notes to the date of issuance of the Registered Notes. Interest on the Restricted Notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue upon issuance of the Registered Notes. Interest is payable on the Registered Notes beginning with the first interest payment date following the consummation of the exchange offers.

Under existing SEC interpretations, Registered Notes acquired in the exchange offers by holders of Restricted Notes will be freely transferable without further registration under the Securities Act if the holder of the Registered Notes is acquiring the Registered Notes in the ordinary course of its business, that it has no arrangement or understanding to participate in the distribution of the Registered Notes and that it is not an affiliate of CPCo or COP, as such terms are interpreted by the SEC; however, broker-dealers (“participating broker-dealers”) receiving Registered Notes in a registered exchange offer will also have a prospectus delivery requirement with respect to resales of such Registered Notes. The SEC has taken the position that participating broker-dealers may fulfill their prospectus delivery requirements with respect to Registered Notes (other than a resale of an unsold allotment from the original sale of the Restricted Notes) with the prospectus contained in the exchange offer registration statement relating to such Registered Notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

by one or more such broker-dealers, CPCo and COP will amend or supplement this prospectus in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registered Notes by any such broker-dealers.

A holder of Restricted Notes who wishes to exchange its Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers will be required to represent that (1) any Registered Notes to be received by it will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business, (2) at the time of the commencement of the exchange offers, it has no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Registered Notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act and it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, the distribution of the Registered Notes, (3) it is not an “affiliate” (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) of CPCo or COP and (4) if such holder is a broker-dealer that will receive the Registered Notes for its own account in exchange for the Restricted Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities, then such holder will deliver a prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available a prospectus to purchasers) in connection with any resale of such Registered Notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

The Registration Rights Agreement provides, among other things, that if we have not exchanged Registered Notes for all Restricted Notes validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the exchange offers on or prior to June 30, 2023 and a shelf registration statement is required under the limited circumstances set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement and such shelf registration statement is not declared effective on or prior to the later of June 30, 2023 and 60 days after delivery of a request by a holder of Restricted Notes for the filing of a shelf registration, the annual interest rate on the Restricted Notes will increase initially by 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such registration default. The annual interest rate on the Restricted Notes will increase by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period that such additional interest continues to accrue; however, the rate at which such additional interest accrues may in no event exceed 1.00% per annum. The additional interest will cease to accrue when all registration defaults are cured. See “Exchange Offers; Registration Rights.”

Resale of Registered Notes

Based on the position that the staff of the SEC enunciated in no action letters issued to Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and Shearman & Sterling, the Registered Notes issued in the exchange offers may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred without registration under the Securities Act, and without delivering a prospectus that satisfies the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act, if the holder of the Restricted Notes who wishes to exchange its Restricted Notes for Registered Notes can make the representations set forth below under “Procedures for Tendering the Restricted Notes.” However, if such holder intends to participate in a distribution of the Registered Notes, is a broker-dealer that acquired the Restricted Notes directly from us for its own account in the initial offering of the Restricted Notes and not as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities or is an “affiliate” of CPCo or COP as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, such holder will not be eligible to participate in the exchange offers, and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with the resale of its Restricted Notes. See “Additional Obligations” below.

A broker-dealer that has acquired Restricted Notes as a result of market-making or other trading activities has to deliver a prospectus in order to resell any Registered Notes it receives for its own account in the exchange offers. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Registered Notes received in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities. CPCo and COP have agreed that, for a period of up to 180 days after the expiration time of the exchange offers, if requested by one or more such broker-dealers, CPCo and COP will amend or supplement this prospectus in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registered Notes by any such broker-dealers. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information regarding broker-dealers.

The exchange offers are not being made to, nor will we accept tenders for exchange from, holders of Restricted Notes in any jurisdiction in which these exchange offers or the acceptance of the exchange offers would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Terms of the Exchange Offers

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal, we will accept for exchange any and all Restricted Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration time. The Restricted Notes may only be tendered in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. We will issue $2,000 principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof of Registered Notes in exchange for a corresponding principal amount of Restricted Notes surrendered in the exchange offers. In exchange for each Restricted Note surrendered in the exchange offers, we will issue a Registered Note with a like principal amount.

The form and terms of the Registered Notes will be substantially identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the Restricted Notes, except that the Registered Notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate for failure to comply with the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Registered Notes will evidence the same debt as the Restricted Notes. The Registered Notes will be issued under and entitled to the benefits of the same indenture that authorized the issuance of the Restricted Notes. Consequently, each series of Registered Notes and the corresponding Restricted Notes that are not exchanged in the applicable exchange offer will be treated as a single series of debt securities under the Indenture.

The exchange offers are not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of Registered Notes being tendered for exchange. None of the exchange offers is conditioned on the consummation of any of the other exchange offers.

There will be no fixed record date for determining registered holders of Restricted Notes entitled to participate in the exchange offers.

We intend to conduct the exchange offers in accordance with the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Restricted Notes that are not tendered for exchange in the exchange offers will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest and will be entitled to the rights and benefits such holders have under the Indenture.

We will be deemed to have accepted for exchange properly tendered Restricted Notes when we have given written notice of the acceptance to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the Registered Notes from the Company and delivering the Registered Notes to such holders. Subject to the terms of the exchange offers and the Registration Rights Agreement, we expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate any of the exchange offers, and to not accept for exchange any Restricted Notes not previously accepted for exchange.

We will pay all charges and expenses, other than those brokerage commissions or fees or transfer or other taxes described below, in connection with the exchange offers. It is important that you read the section titled “Fees and Expenses” below for more details regarding fees and expenses incurred in the exchange offers.

Expiration Time; Extensions; Amendments

Each of the exchange offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 3, 2022, unless, in our sole discretion, we extend the expiration time of such exchange offer.

In order to extend the exchange offers, we will notify the exchange agent in writing of any extension of such exchange offer. We will notify registered holders of the applicable Restricted Notes in writing or by public announcement of the extension, if any, of the expiration time by no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the business day after the previously scheduled expiration time.

We expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion:

•

to delay accepting for exchange any Restricted Notes due to an extension of the exchange offers;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

to extend the exchange offers or to terminate the exchange offers and to refuse to accept Restricted Notes not previously accepted if any of the conditions set forth under “Conditions to the Exchange Offers” have not been satisfied by giving written notice of such extension or termination to the exchange agent; or

•

subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, to amend the terms of the exchange offers in any manner.

Any such delay in acceptance, extension or termination will be followed as promptly as practicable by written notice or public announcement thereof to the registered holders of Restricted Notes. If we amend any of the exchange offers in a manner that we determine to constitute a material change, we will promptly disclose such amendment in a manner reasonably calculated to inform the holders of the relevant Restricted Notes of such amendment.

Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make public announcements of any delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment of any of the exchange offers, we shall have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement other than by issuing a timely press release to a financial news service. If we make any material change to any of the exchange offers, we will disclose this change by means of a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus and will distribute an amended or supplemented prospectus to each registered holder of relevant Restricted Notes. In addition, we will extend the relevant exchange offer(s) for an additional five to ten business days as required by the Exchange Act, depending on the significance of the amendment, if the exchange offer(s) would otherwise expire during that period. We will promptly notify the exchange agent by written notice of any delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment of any of the exchange offers.

Conditions to the Exchange Offers

Notwithstanding any other terms of the exchange offers, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or exchange any Registered Notes for, any Restricted Notes, and we may terminate any of the exchange offers as provided in this prospectus before accepting any Restricted Notes for exchange, if we determine in our sole discretion:

•

the exchange offers would violate applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC; or

•

any action or proceeding has been instituted or threatened in any court or by any governmental agency with respect to the exchange offers.

In addition, we will not be obligated to accept for exchange the Restricted Notes of any holder that has not made the representations described in the letter of transmittal and under “Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offers,” “Procedures for Tendering the Restricted Notes” and “Plan of Distribution,” and such other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations or interpretations to make available to it an appropriate form for registration of the Registered Notes under the Securities Act.

We expressly reserve the right, at any time or at various times, to extend the period of time during which any of the exchange offers are open. Consequently, we may delay acceptance of any Restricted Notes by giving written notice (including by public announcement) of such extension to the registered holders of the relevant Restricted Notes as promptly as practicable. During any such extensions, all relevant Restricted Notes previously tendered will remain subject to the applicable exchange offers, and we may accept them for exchange unless they have been previously withdrawn. We will return any Restricted Notes that we do not accept for exchange for any reason without expense to the tendering holder promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offers.

We expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate any of the exchange offers, and to reject for exchange any Restricted Notes not previously accepted for exchange, upon the occurrence of any of the conditions of the exchange offers specified above. We will give written notice or public announcement of any extension, amendment, non-acceptance or termination to the registered holders of the relevant Restricted

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Notes as promptly as practicable. In the case of any extension, such notice will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the business day after the previously scheduled expiration time.

These conditions are for our sole benefit, and we may assert them regardless of the circumstances that may give rise to them or waive them in whole or in part at any or at various times in our sole discretion; provided that any waiver of a condition of tender with respect to any of the exchange offers will apply to all of the relevant, outstanding Restricted Notes and not only to particular relevant Restricted Notes. If we fail at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights, that failure will not constitute a waiver of such right. Each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that we may assert at any time or at various times.

In addition, we will not accept for exchange any Restricted Notes tendered, and will not issue Registered Notes in exchange for any such Restricted Notes, if at such time any stop order will be threatened or in effect with respect to the Registration Statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the “Trust Indenture Act”).

Procedures for Tendering the Restricted Notes

Except as described below, a holder tendering Restricted Notes must, prior to the expiration time:

•

transmit a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal, including all other documents required by the letter of transmittal, to the exchange agent, or

•

if Restricted Notes are tendered in accordance with the book-entry procedures described below, the tendering holder must transmit an agent’s message (described below) to the exchange agent.

Transmittal will be deemed made only when actually received or confirmed by the exchange agent.

In addition, the exchange agent must receive, before the expiration time, book-entry transfer of the Restricted Notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC, the book-entry transfer facility.

The term “agent’s message” means a computer-generated message, transmitted by DTC to, and received by, the exchange agent and forming a part of a book-entry confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the tendering participant that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by, and makes the representations and warranties contained in, the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against such participant.

The method of delivery of Restricted Notes, letters of transmittal and all other required documents is at the holder’s election and risk. If delivery is by mail, we recommend that holders use registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested. In all cases, holders should allow sufficient time to assure timely delivery. Holders should not send letters of transmittal or Restricted Notes to anyone other than the exchange agent.

If the holder is a beneficial owner whose Restricted Notes are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and wishes to tender, such holder should promptly instruct the registered holder to tender on its behalf. Any registered holder that is a participant in DTC’s book-entry transfer facility system may make book-entry delivery of the Restricted Notes by causing DTC to transfer the Restricted Notes into the exchange agent’s account.

Signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed unless the Restricted Notes surrendered for exchange are tendered:

•

by a registered holder of the Restricted Notes that has not completed the box entitled “Special Issuance Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal; or

•

for the account of an “eligible institution.”

If signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal are required to be guaranteed, the guarantees must be by an “eligible institution.” An “eligible institution” is a financial institution, including most banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses, that is a participant in the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program or the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We will reasonably determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility of Restricted Notes tendered for exchange and all questions concerning the timing of receipts and acceptance of tenders. These determinations will be final and binding.

We reserve the right to reject any particular Restricted Note not validly tendered, or any acceptance that might, in our judgment, be unlawful. We also reserve the right to waive any defects or irregularities with respect to the form of, or procedures applicable to, the tender of any particular Restricted Note before the expiration time. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of Restricted Notes must be cured before the expiration time of the applicable exchange offer. None of the Company, the exchange agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in any tender of the Restricted Notes. None of the Company, the exchange agent or any other person will incur any liability for failing to give notification of any defect or irregularity.

If the letter of transmittal is executed by a person other than the registered holder of Restricted Notes, the letter of transmittal must be accompanied by the Restricted Notes endorsed by the registered holder or written instrument of transfer or exchange in satisfactory form, duly executed by the registered holder, in either case with the signature guaranteed by an eligible institution. In addition, in either case, the original endorsement or the instrument of transfer must be signed exactly as the name of any registered holder appears on the Restricted Notes.

If the letter of transmittal or any Restricted Notes or powers of attorney are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, these persons should so indicate when signing. Unless waived by us, proper evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to so act must be submitted.

All questions as to the form of documents and validity, eligibility (including time of receipt), acceptance for exchange and withdrawal of tendered Restricted Notes will be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, and its determination will be final and binding.

By signing or agreeing to be bound by the letter of transmittal, each tendering holder of Restricted Notes will represent, among other things, that:

•

it is not an affiliate of ours or, if an affiliate of ours, will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable in connection with the resale of the Registered Notes;

•

the Registered Notes will be acquired in the ordinary course of its business;

•

it is not participating, does not intend to participate, and has no arrangement or understanding with anyone to participate, in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the Registered Notes; and

•

if such holder is a broker-dealer that will receive Registered Notes for its own account in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, that it will deliver a prospectus (or to the extent permitted by law, make available a prospectus to purchasers) in connection with any resale of such Registered Notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Acceptance of Restricted Notes for Exchange; Delivery of Registered Notes

Upon satisfaction of all of the conditions to the applicable exchange offer, we will accept, promptly after the expiration time, all relevant Restricted Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn. We will issue the Registered Notes promptly after the expiration of the applicable exchange offer and acceptance of the relevant Restricted Notes. See “Conditions to the Exchange Offers” above. For purposes of the exchange offers, we will be deemed to have accepted validly tendered Restricted Notes for exchange when, as and if we have given written notice of such acceptance to the exchange agent.

For each Restricted Note accepted for exchange, the holder of the Restricted Note will receive a Registered Note having a principal amount equal to that of the surrendered Restricted Note. Restricted Notes accepted for exchange will cease to accrue interest from and after the date of completion of the exchange offers. Holders of Restricted Notes whose Restricted Notes are accepted for exchange will not

TABLE OF CONTENTS

receive any payment for accrued interest on the Restricted Notes otherwise payable on any interest payment date, the record date for which occurs on or after completion of the exchange offers and will be deemed to have waived their rights to receive such accrued interest on the Restricted Notes.

In all cases, issuance of Registered Notes for Restricted Notes will be made only after timely receipt by the exchange agent of:

•

book-entry confirmation of the deposit of the Restricted Notes into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility;

•

a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal or a transmitted agent’s message; and

•

all other required documents.

Unaccepted or non-exchanged Restricted Notes will be returned without expense to the tendering holder of the Restricted Notes promptly after the expiration of the applicable exchange offer. In the case of Restricted Notes tendered by book-entry transfer in accordance with the book-entry procedures described below, the non-exchanged Restricted Notes will be returned or recredited promptly after the expiration of the applicable exchange offer.

Book-Entry Transfer

The exchange agent will make a request to establish an account for the Restricted Notes at DTC for purposes of the exchange offers within two business days after the date of this prospectus. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s systems and is tendering Restricted Notes must make book-entry delivery of the Restricted Notes by causing DTC to transfer those Restricted Notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures for transfer, including its ATOP procedures. The participant should transmit its acceptance to DTC prior to the expiration time. DTC will verify this acceptance, execute a book-entry transfer of the tendered Restricted Notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC and then send to the exchange agent confirmation of this book-entry transfer, which confirmation must be received prior to the expiration time. The confirmation of this book-entry transfer will include an agent’s message confirming that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant that the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the letter of transmittal and that we may enforce the letter of transmittal against the participant. Delivery of Registered Notes issued in the exchange offers may be effected through book-entry transfer at DTC. However, the letter of transmittal (or an agent’s message in lieu thereof), with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must be transmitted to, and received by, the exchange agent at the address listed below under “Exchange Agent” (or its account at DTC with respect to an agent’s message) prior to the expiration time.

Withdrawal of Tenders

Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus, holders of Restricted Notes may withdraw (and resubmit) their tenders at any time prior to the expiration of the applicable exchange offers. For a withdrawal to be effective, the exchange agent must receive a written notice of withdrawal at one of the addresses set forth below under “Exchange Agent,” or the holder must comply with the appropriate procedure of DTC’s ATOP system.

Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn, identify the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn (including the principal amount of such Restricted Notes and the CUSIPs and total principal amount of such Restricted Notes) and, where Restricted Notes have been transmitted via ATOP, specify the name in which such Restricted Notes were registered if different from that of the withdrawing holder. Any such notice of withdrawal must also be signed by the person having tendered the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal by which these Restricted Notes were tendered, including any required signature guarantees, or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to permit the trustee for the Restricted Notes to register the transfer of these notes into the name of the person having made the original tender and withdrawing the tender and, if applicable because the Restricted Notes have been tendered through the book-entry procedure, specify the name and number of the participant’s account at DTC to be credited if different than that of the person having tendered the Restricted Notes to be withdrawn.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If Restricted Notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedure for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn Restricted Notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of such facility. We will determine all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of such notices, and our determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We will deem any Restricted Notes so withdrawn not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offers. Any Restricted Notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to their holder without cost to the holder (or, in the case of Restricted Notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account of DTC according to the procedures described above, such Restricted Notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC for Restricted Notes) promptly after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the applicable exchange offer. Properly withdrawn Restricted Notes may be retendered by following one of the procedures described under “Procedures for Tendering the Restricted Notes” above at any time prior to the expiration time.

Fees and Expenses

We will not make any payment to brokers, dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offers. We have agreed under the Registration Rights Agreement to pay all expenses incident to the exchange offers other than commissions or concessions of any broker-dealers and CPCo and COP will, jointly and severally, indemnify the holders of the Restricted Notes and the Registered Notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The cash expenses to be incurred in connection with the exchange offers, including out-of-pocket expenses for the exchange agent, will be paid by CPCo. We will not pay for underwriting discounts and commissions, brokerage commissions and transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of Restricted Notes by a holder.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange

Holders of Restricted Notes who do not exchange their Restricted Notes for Registered Notes under the exchange offers will remain subject to the restrictions on transfer of such Restricted Notes as set forth in

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the legend printed on the Restricted Notes as a consequence of the issuance of the Restricted Notes pursuant to the exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws and otherwise as set forth in the offering memorandum distributed in connection with the private placement offering of the Restricted Notes.

In general, you may not offer or sell the Restricted Notes unless they are registered under the Securities Act or if the offer or sale is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the Registration Rights Agreement, we do not intend to register resales of the Restricted Notes under the Securities Act. Based on interpretations of the SEC staff, Registered Notes issued pursuant to the exchange offers may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by their holders (other than any such holder that is the CPCo’s or COP’s “affiliate” within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act) without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act; so long as the holders acquired the Registered Notes in the ordinary course of the holders’ business and the holders have no arrangement or understanding with respect to the distribution of the Registered Notes to be acquired in the exchange offers. Any holder who tenders in the exchange offers for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the Registered Notes could not rely on the applicable interpretations of the SEC and must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction.

We do not currently anticipate that we will register under the Securities Act any Restricted Notes that remain outstanding after completion of the exchange offers. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to the Exchange Offers — You may have difficulty selling the Restricted Notes that you do not exchange.”

Accounting Treatment

We will record the Registered Notes in our accounting records at the same carrying value as the Restricted Notes for which they were exchanged in respect of the offer made pursuant to this prospectus, as reflected in our accounting records on the date of exchange. Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes in connection with the exchange offers. We will expense the costs of the exchange offers and amortize the remaining unamortized expenses related to the issuance of the Restricted Notes over the term of the Registered Notes.

Additional Obligations

In the Registration Rights Agreement, CPCo and COP agreed that under certain circumstances they would file a shelf registration statement with the SEC covering resales of notes by holders thereof if:

•

CPCo and COP determine that the exchange offers are not available or may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last date of acceptance for exchange because they would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC; or

•

the exchange offers are not for any other reason completed prior to the later of June 30, 2023 and the date on which, under certain circumstances, any holder of Restricted Notes so requests.

In such an event, CPCo and COP would be under a continuing obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the shelf registration statement effective and to provide copies of the latest version of the prospectus contained therein to any broker-dealer that requests copies for use in a resale.

Other

Participation in the exchange offers is voluntary, and you should carefully consider whether to accept. You are urged to consult your financial and tax advisors in making your own decision on what action to take. We may in the future seek to acquire untendered Restricted Notes in the open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plans to acquire any Restricted Notes that are not tendered in the exchange offers or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered Restricted Notes.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES

The Restricted Notes were, and the Registered Notes will be, issued pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 11, 2022 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture, dated as of December 7, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”; the Base Indenture as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), among CPCo, as issuer, COP, as guarantor, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”).

Because this section is a summary, it does not describe every aspect of the Indenture or the Registered Notes. This summary is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the Indenture, including definitions of certain terms used in the Indenture and the Registered Notes. You should read the Indenture and, when available, the Registered Notes, because they contain additional information and they, and not this description, define your rights as a holder of the Registered Notes. Additionally, copies of the Indenture are available without charge upon request to us at the address provided in the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

For purposes of this section, references to “Company,” “CPCo,” “we,” “us” or “our” include only ConocoPhillips Company and not any of its subsidiaries, and references to “COP” and the “Guarantor” include only ConocoPhillips and not any of its subsidiaries.

General

The Restricted Notes were, and the Registered Notes will be, issued by ConocoPhillips Company, a Delaware corporation, and guaranteed by ConocoPhillips, a Delaware corporation.

The terms of each series of the Registered Notes will be substantially identical in all material respects to the terms of the corresponding series of Restricted Notes, except that the Registered Notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate for failure to comply with the Registration Rights Agreement. The trustee will authenticate and deliver Registered Notes for original issue only in exchange for a like principal amount of Restricted Notes.

Each series of the Registered Notes constitutes separate series under the Indenture. The Registered Notes are not subject to any sinking fund provision.

The following table sets forth the title (including the interest rate), CUSIP, maturity date, aggregate principal amount outstanding, interest payment dates and record dates of each series of Registered Notes offered.

Interest on each series of Registered Notes will be paid semiannually in cash on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If a payment date is a legal holiday at a place of payment, payment may be made at that place on the next succeeding day that is not a legal holiday, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We will issue the Registered Notes only in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The authorized aggregate principal amount of any series of Registered Notes may be increased before or after the issuance of such Registered Notes by a board resolution (or action pursuant to a board resolution) to such effect; provided, however, that any such additional Registered Notes issued of any series that are not fungible, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, with the original Registered Notes of such series offered hereby will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN and other identifying number. The Indenture provides for the issuance of other series of debt securities (including the Registered Notes) thereunder. The aggregate principal amount of securities that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited. We may issue additional debt securities under the Indenture from time to time in one or more series, each in an amount authorized prior to issuance.

Guarantee

Our obligations under the Registered Notes and the Indenture, including, without limitation the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor. The guarantee will rank equally with all other general senior, unsecured obligations of the Guarantor.

The guarantee will not contain any restrictions on the ability of the Guarantor to (i) pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Guarantor’s capital stock or (ii) make any payment of principal, interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Guarantor.

Ranking

The Registered Notes will be the senior, unsecured obligations of CPCo, will rank equally with all other senior, unsecured debt of CPCo, including all other senior, unsecured securities issued under the Indenture, from time to time outstanding, and will be structurally subordinated to CPCo’s secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt and the secured and unsecured debt of CPCo’s subsidiaries. The guarantees of the Registered Notes will be the senior, unsecured obligations of the Guarantor, will rank equally with all other senior, unsecured debt obligations of the Guarantor, and will be structurally subordinated to the Guarantor’s secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt and the secured and unsecured debt obligations of the Guarantor’s subsidiaries (other than CPCo).

Paying Agents and Registrar

CPCo initially appoints the Trustee as registrar and paying agent for the Registered Notes. The Company will pay the principal of, premium (if any) on and interest on and any additional amounts with respect to the Registered Notes in U.S. dollars. Such amounts shall be payable at the offices of the Trustee, provided that at the option of the Company, the Company may pay such amounts (1) by wire transfer with respect to global securities or (2) by wire transfer or by check payable in such money mailed to a holder’s registered address with respect to any Registered Notes.

Optional Redemption

Prior to the applicable Par Call Date, CPCo may redeem the Registered Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(1)

(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Registered Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points (in the case of the 4.025% Notes due 2062) and 20 basis points (in the case of the 3.758% Notes due 2042), less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(2)

100% of the principal amount of the Registered Notes to be redeemed,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the applicable Par Call Date, CPCo may redeem the Registered Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Registered Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

“Par Call Date” means (i) in the case of the 4.025% Notes due 2062, September 15, 2061, (the date that is six months prior to their maturity date) and (ii) in the case of the 3.758% Notes due 2042, September 15, 2041, (the date that is six months prior to their maturity date).

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by CPCo in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by CPCo after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third business day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily) — H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities — Treasury constant maturities — Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, CPCo shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the applicable Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields — one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life — and shall interpolate to the applicable Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If on the third business day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, CPCo shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second business day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the applicable Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the applicable Par Call Date, CPCo shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, CPCo shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

CPCo’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Registered Notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Registered Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Registered Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Registered Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Registered Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Registered Note to be redeemed. A new Registered Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Registered Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Registered Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Registered Note. For so long as the notes are held by DTC (or another depositary), the redemption of the Registered Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Unless CPCo defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Mandatory Redemption

We are not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Registered Notes.

Certain Covenants

Limitation on Liens. The Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any Principal Domestic Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any Debt for borrowed money secured by any Lien upon any Principal Property or any shares of stock or Debt of any Principal Domestic Subsidiary (whether such Principal Property, shares of stock or Debt is now owned or hereafter acquired) without making effective provision whereby the Registered Notes (together with, if the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Debt or other obligation of the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or, at the option of the Guarantor, prior to) the Debt so secured for so long as such Debt is so secured. The foregoing restrictions will not, however, apply to Debt secured by Permitted Liens.

In addition, the Guarantor and its Principal Domestic Subsidiaries may, without securing the Registered Notes, issue, assume or guarantee Debt that would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions in an aggregate principal amount that, together with all other such Debt of the Guarantor and its Principal Domestic Subsidiaries that would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions (not including Debt permitted to be secured under the definition of Permitted Liens) and the aggregate amount of Attributable Debt deemed outstanding with respect to Sale/Leaseback Transactions (reduced by the amount applied pursuant to subsection (b) of the description of the covenant set forth below under “— Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions”) does not at any one time exceed 10% of Consolidated Adjusted Net Assets.

The following types of transactions shall not be deemed to create “Debt” secured by “Liens” within the meaning of those terms as used in the Indenture:

(a) the sale or other transfer of (i) oil, gas or other minerals in place for a period of time until, or in an amount such that, the purchaser will realize therefrom a specified amount of money (however determined) or a specified amount of such minerals, or (ii) any other interest in property of the character commonly referred to as a “production payment”; and

(b) the mortgage or pledge of any property of the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries in favor of the United States or any State, or any department, agency, instrumentality or political subdivision of either, to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments pursuant to the provisions of any contract or statute.

Limitation on Sale/Leaseback Transactions. The Guarantor shall not, and shall not permit any Principal Domestic Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale/Leaseback Transaction with any person (other than the Guarantor or its subsidiaries) unless:

(a) the Guarantor or such Principal Domestic Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Debt in a principal amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale/Leaseback Transaction secured by a Lien on the property subject to such Sale/Leaseback Transaction pursuant to the covenant described above under “— Limitation on Liens” without equally and ratably securing the Registered Notes pursuant to such covenant; or

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(b) within a period commencing 12 months prior to the consummation of such Sale/Leaseback Transaction and ending 12 months after the consummation thereof, the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries shall have applied an amount equal to all or a portion of the net proceeds of such Sale/Leaseback Transaction (with any such amount not being so applied to be subject to subsection (a) above):

(1) to the voluntary defeasance or retirement of any Registered Notes or any Funded Debt; or

(2) to the acquisition, exploration, drilling, development, construction, improvement or expansion of one or more Principal Properties.

For these purposes, the net proceeds of a Sale/Leaseback Transaction means an amount equal to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of the sale or transfer of the property leased in such Sale/Leaseback Transaction and (ii) the fair value, as determined by the board of directors of the Guarantor and evidenced by a board resolution, of such property at the time of entering into such Sale/Leaseback Transaction.

The following terms are defined in the Indenture:

“Attributable Debt,” when used with respect to any Sale/Leaseback Transaction, means, as at the time of determination, the present value (discounted at the rate set forth or implicit in the terms of the lease included in such transaction) of the total obligations of the lessee for rental payments (other than amounts required to be paid on account of taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance, assessments, utilities, operating and labor costs and other items which do not constitute payments for property rights) during the remaining term of the lease included in such Sale/Leaseback Transaction (including any period for which such lease has been extended). In the case of any lease which is terminable by the lessee upon the payment of a penalty, such net amount shall be the lesser of the net amount determined assuming termination upon the first date such lease may be terminated (in which case the net amount shall also include the amount of the penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date upon which it may be so terminated) or the net amount determined assuming no such termination.

“Consolidated Adjusted Net Assets” means the total amount of assets less (1) all current liabilities (excluding the amount of those liabilities which are by their terms extendable or renewable at the option of the obligor to a date more than 12 months after the date as of which the amount is being determined and current maturities of long-term debt) and (2) total prepaid expenses and deferred charges, all as set forth on the most recent quarterly balance sheet of the Guarantor and its consolidated subsidiaries and determined in accordance with GAAP.

“Debt” means all notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of debt for money borrowed.

“Funded Debt” means all Debt (including Debt incurred under any revolving credit, letter of credit or working capital facility) that matures by its terms, or that is renewable at the option of any obligor thereon, to a date more than one year after the date on which such Debt is originally incurred.

“Lien” means any mortgage, pledge, lien or security interest.

“Permitted Liens” means:

(i) Liens existing on the date of first issuance of a series of the New Notes;

(ii) Liens on property or assets of, or any shares of stock of, or other equity interests in, or Debt of, any person existing at the time such person becomes a subsidiary of the Guarantor or a Principal Domestic Subsidiary or at the time such person is merged into or consolidated with the Guarantor or any of its subsidiaries or at the time of a sale, lease or other disposition of the properties of a person (or a division thereof) as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Guarantor or its subsidiaries;

(iii) Liens on assets (including improvements and accessions thereto and proceeds thereof) (a) existing at the time of acquisition thereof, (b) securing all or any portion of the cost of acquiring, constructing, improving, developing or expanding such assets or (c) securing Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 24 months after, the later of the acquisition, the completion of construction, improvement, development or expansion or the commencement of commercial operation of such assets,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to the Guarantor or of the Guarantor to the Company), unless:

(1) either (a) the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be the continuing person or (b) the person (if other than the Company or the Guarantor) formed by such consolidation or into which the Company or the Guarantor is merged, or to which such sale, lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition shall be made (collectively, the “Successor”), is organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States, any political subdivision thereof or any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and expressly assumes by supplemental indenture, in the case of the Company, the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on and any additional amounts with respect to all the Registered Notes and the performance of the Company’s covenants and obligations under the Indenture and the Registered Notes, or, in the case of the Guarantor, the performance of the guarantee and the Guarantor’s covenants and obligations under the Indenture and the Registered Notes;

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions, no default or Event of Default (as defined below) shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom; and

(3) the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, delivers to the Trustee an officers’ certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that the transaction and such supplemental indenture comply with the Indenture.

Events of Default

The Indenture defines an “Event of Default” with respect to the Registered Notes of a series as one or more of the following events:

(1) there is a default in the payment of interest on or any additional amounts with respect to any Registered Notes of that series when the same becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(2) there is default in the payment of (A) the principal of any Registered Note of that series at its maturity or (B) premium (if any) on any Registered Note of that series when the same becomes due and payable;

(3) there is a default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of a Registered Note of that series, and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(4) the Company or the Guarantor fails to comply with any of its other covenants or agreements in, or provisions of, the Registered Notes of such series or the Indenture (other than an agreement, covenant or provision that has expressly been included in the Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more series of securities other than that series) which shall not have been remedied within the specified period after written notice, as specified in the last paragraph of this section;

(5) the Company or the Guarantor pursuant to or within the meaning of any bankruptcy law:

(A) commences a voluntary case,

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

(D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any bankruptcy law that remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days and that:

(A) is for relief against the Company or the Guarantor as debtor in an involuntary case,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(B) appoints a bankruptcy custodian of the Company or the Guarantor or a bankruptcy custodian for all or substantially all of the property of the Company or the Guarantor, or

The term “bankruptcy custodian” means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator or similar official under any bankruptcy law.

The Trustee shall not be deemed to know or have notice of any default or Event of Default unless a responsible officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a default or Event of Default is received by the Trustee at the corporate trust office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Registered Notes and the Indenture.

When a default is cured, it ceases.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, if the principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or additional amounts with respect to the Registered Notes is payable in a currency or currencies (including a composite currency) other than dollars and such currency or currencies are not available to the Company or the Guarantor for making payment thereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company or the Guarantor (a “Conversion Event”), each of the Company and the Guarantor will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to holders of the Registered Notes by making such payment in dollars in an amount equal to the dollar equivalent of the amount payable in such other currency, as determined by the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, by reference to the exchange rate on the date of such payment, or, if such rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available exchange rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, any payment made under such circumstances in dollars where the required payment is in a currency other than dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture.

Promptly after the occurrence of a Conversion Event, the Company or the Guarantor shall give written notice thereof to the Trustee; and the Trustee, promptly after receipt of such notice, shall give notice thereof in the manner provided in the Indenture to the holders. Promptly after the making of any payment in dollars as a result of a Conversion Event, the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall give notice in the manner provided in the Indenture to the holders, setting forth the applicable exchange rate and describing the calculation of such payments.

A default under clause (4) above is not an Event of Default until the Trustee notifies the Company and the Guarantor, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Registered Notes of the series affected by such default (or, if outstanding securities of other series are affected by such default, then at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding securities so affected) notify the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee, of the default, and the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, fails to cure the default within 90 days after receipt of the notice.

Modification of the Indenture

The Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the securities issued thereunder (including the Registered Notes) or waive any provision hereof or thereof without the consent of any holder:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to comply with the covenant described above under “— Limitation on Mergers and Consolidations”;

(3) to provide for uncertificated securities in addition to or in place of certificated securities, or to provide for the issuance of bearer securities (with or without coupons);

(4) to provide any security for, or to add any guarantees of or additional obligors on, any series of securities or the related guarantees;

(5) to comply with any requirement in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(6) to add to the covenants of the Company or the Guarantor for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of securities (and if such covenants are to be for the benefit of less than all series of securities, stating that such covenants are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series), or to surrender any right or power in the Indenture conferred upon the Company or the Guarantor;

(7) to add any additional Events of Default with respect to all or any series of the securities (and, if any Event of Default is applicable to less than all series of securities, specifying the series to which such Event of Default is applicable);

(8) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture; provided that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no outstanding security of any series created prior to the execution of such amendment or supplemental indenture that is adversely affected in any material respect by such change in or elimination of such provision;

(9) to establish the form or terms of securities of any series as permitted under the Indenture;

(10) to supplement any of the provisions of the Indenture to such extent as shall be necessary to permit or facilitate the defeasance and discharge of any series of securities pursuant to the Indenture; provided, however, that any such action shall not adversely affect the interest of the holders of securities of such series or any other series of securities in any material respect; or

(11) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture by a successor Trustee with respect to the securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts thereunder by more than one Trustee, pursuant to the requirements of the Indenture.

Except as provided below, the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture with the written consent (including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities of any one or more series or all series or a solicitation of consents in respect of securities of any one or more series or all series; provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all holders of then outstanding securities of each such series (but the terms of such offer or solicitation may vary from series to series)) of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding securities of all series affected by such amendment or supplement (acting as one class).

Upon the request of the Company, accompanied by a board resolution, and upon the filing with the Trustee of evidence of the consent of the holders as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in the Indenture, the Trustee shall, subject to the Indenture, join with the Company and the Guarantor in the execution of such amendment or supplemental indenture.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the holders under this section to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding securities of one or more series or of all series may waive compliance in a particular instance by the Company or the Guarantor with any provision of the Indenture with respect to securities of such series (including waivers obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for securities of such series or a solicitation of consents in respect of securities of such series, provided that in each case such offer or solicitation is made to all holders of then outstanding securities of such series (but the terms of such offer or solicitation may vary from series to series)).

However, without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver under this section may not:

(1) reduce the amount of securities whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any security;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(3) reduce the principal of, any premium on or any mandatory sinking fund payment with respect to, or change the stated maturity of, any security or reduce the amount of the principal of an original issue discount security that would be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to the Indenture;

(4) reduce the premium, if any, payable upon the redemption of any security or change the time at which any security may or shall be redeemed;

(5) change any obligation of the Company or the Guarantor to pay additional amounts with respect to any security;

(6) change the coin or currency or currencies (including composite currencies) in which any security or any premium, interest or additional amounts with respect thereto are payable;

(7) impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or any additional amounts with respect to any security pursuant to the rights of holders to receive payment covenant or the collection suit by Trustee covenant, except as limited by the limitation on suits covenant;

(8) make any change in the percentage of principal amount of securities necessary to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture pursuant to the waiver of default covenant or the rights of holders to receive payment covenant or make any change in this sentence; or

(9) waive a continuing default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on or additional amounts with respect to the securities.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of securities, or which modifies the rights of the holders of securities of such series with respect to such covenant or other provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of the holders of securities of any other series.

The right of any holder to participate in any consent required or sought pursuant to any provision of the Indenture (and the obligation of the Company or the Guarantor to obtain any such consent otherwise required from such holder) may be subject to the requirement that such holder shall have been the holder of record of any securities with respect to which such consent is required or sought as of a date identified by the Company or the Guarantor in a notice furnished to holders in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this section becomes effective, the Company shall mail to the holders of each security affected thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.

Satisfaction and Discharge

The Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Registered Notes of a series (except that the Company’s obligations to indemnify the Trustee, the Trustee’s and paying agent’s obligations to repay the Company or the Guarantor, and the rights, powers, protections and privileges accorded to the Trustee, in each case as provided in the Indenture, shall survive), and the Trustee and the Guarantor, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Registered Notes of such series, when:

(1) Either:

(a) all outstanding Registered Notes of such series theretofore authenticated and issued (other than destroyed, lost or stolen Registered Notes that have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

(b) all outstanding Registered Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation: (i) have become due and payable; or (ii) will become due and payable at their

TABLE OF CONTENTS

stated maturity within one year; or (iii) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company, and, in the case of clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Company or the Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as funds (immediately available to the holders in the case of clause (i)) in trust for such purpose (x) cash in an amount, or (y) government obligations, maturing as to principal and interest at such times and in such amounts as will ensure the availability of cash in an amount or (z) a combination thereof, which will be sufficient, in the opinion (in the case of clauses (y) and (z)) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Registered Notes of such series for principal and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Registered Notes which have become due and payable) or for principal, premium, if any, and interest to the stated maturity or redemption date, as the case may be; or

(c) the Company and the Guarantor have properly fulfilled such other means of satisfaction and discharge as is specified, as contemplated by the Indenture, to be applicable to the Registered Notes of such series;

(2) The Company or the Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable by them under the Indenture with respect to Registered Notes of such series; and

(3) The Company has delivered to the Trustee an officers’ certificate stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to Registered Notes of such series have been complied with, together with an opinion of counsel to the same effect.

Defeasance

Covenant Defeasance

The Company may, at its option, terminate certain of its and the Guarantor’s respective obligations under the Indenture (“Covenant Defeasance”) with respect to the Registered Notes of a series if:

( 1) the Company or the Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for and dedicated solely to the benefit of the holders of Registered Notes of such series, (i) money in the currency in which payment of the Registered Notes of such series is to be made in an amount, or (ii) government obligations with respect to such series, maturing as to principal and interest at such times and in such amounts as will ensure the availability of money in the currency in which payment of the Registered Notes of such series is to be made in an amount or (iii) a combination thereof, that is sufficient, in the opinion (in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii)) of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay the principal of and premium (if any) and interest on all Registered Notes of such series on each date that such principal, premium (if any) or interest is due and payable and (at the stated maturity thereof or upon redemption as provided in the Indenture) to pay all other sums payable by it under the Indenture; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money and/or the proceeds of such government obligation to the payment of said principal, premium (if any) and interest with respect to the Registered Notes of such series as the same shall become due;

(2) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an officers’ certificate stating that all conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture with respect to the Registered Notes of such series have been complied with, and an opinion of counsel to the same effect;

(3) no default or Event of Default with respect to the Registered Notes of such series shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit;

(4) the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee or a tax ruling to the effect that the holders will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the Company’s exercise

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of its option under this Covenant Defeasance section and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such option had not been exercised;

(5) the Company and the Guarantor have complied with any additional conditions specified pursuant to the Indenture to be applicable to the discharge of Registered Notes of such series pursuant to this section; and

(6) such deposit and discharge shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest as defined in the Trust Indenture Act section 310(b).

In such event, the Indenture shall cease to be of further effect (except as set forth in this paragraph), and the Trustee and the Guarantor, on demand of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge under the Indenture. However, the Company’s and the Guarantor’s respective obligations, as applicable, as provided in the Indenture, (1) to maintain an office or agency where Registered Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange and for payment, (2) to require each paying agent to hold moneys in trust for the benefit of holders or the Trustee, (3) if the Trustee is not the registrar, to furnish the Trustee with holder lists, (4) to execute Registered Notes at the registrar’s request in connection with transfers and exchanges, (5) to execute and issue Registered Notes to replace mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Registered Notes, (6) to pay the principal of, premium (if any) and interest on any additional amounts with respect to the Registered Notes, (7) to maintain in each place of payment for any series of Registered Notes an office or agency where Registered Notes may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange, for payment and where notices and demands may be served, (8) to indemnify the Trustee, (9) to appoint a successor trustee, (10) relating to reinstatement of obligations and (11) to guarantee the Registered Notes shall survive until all Registered Notes of such series are no longer outstanding; the Trustee’s and paying agent’s obligations to pay the Company or the Guarantor excess money or government obligations held by them in accordance with the Indenture, and the Trustee’s rights, powers, protections and privileges accorded to it under the article governing the Trustee in the Indenture, shall survive until all Registered Notes of such series are no longer outstanding. Thereafter, only the Company’s obligation to indemnify the Trustee and the Trustee’s and paying agent’s obligations to pay the Company or the Guarantor excess money or government obligations held by them in accordance with the Indenture shall survive with respect to the Registered Notes of such series.

Legal Defeasance

If the Company and the Guarantor have previously complied or are concurrently complying with the requirements for Covenant Defeasance with respect to Registered Notes of a series, then, the Company may elect that its and the Guarantor’s respective obligations to make payments with respect to Registered Notes of such series be discharged (“Legal Defeasance”), if:

(1) no default or Event of Default under clauses (5) and (6) of the “— Events of Default” section above shall have occurred at any time ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit contemplated in connection with Covenant Defeasance (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period);

(2) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel acceptable to the Trustee to the effect referred to in the Covenant Defeasance section with respect to such legal defeasance, which opinion is based on (i) a private ruling of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) addressed to the Company, (ii) a published ruling of the IRS pertaining to a comparable form of transaction or (iii) a change in the applicable federal income tax law (including regulations) after the date of this Indenture;

(3) the Company and the Guarantor have complied with any other conditions specified to be applicable to the Legal Defeasance of Registered Notes of such series; and

(4) the Company has delivered to the Trustee a company request requesting such legal defeasance of the Registered Notes of such series and an officers’ certificate stating that all conditions precedent with respect to such legal defeasance of the Registered Notes of such series have been complied with, together with an opinion of counsel to the same effect.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In such event, the Company and the Guarantors will be discharged from their respective obligations under the Indenture and the Registered Notes of such series to pay principal of, premium (if any) and interest on, and any additional amounts with respect to the Registered Notes of such series, the Company’s and the Guarantor’s respective obligations under the Indenture, as applicable, with respect to payment of the Registered Notes, maintaining an office or agency and guaranteeing the Registered Notes shall terminate with respect to such Registered Notes, and the entire indebtedness of the Company evidenced by such Registered Notes and of the Guarantor evidenced by the related Guarantees shall be deemed paid and discharged.

Governing Law

New York law governs the Indenture and will govern the Registered Notes.

Book-Entry System

Global Notes

Like the Restricted Notes, we will issue the Registered Notes of each series in the form of one or more temporary or permanent global notes in definitive, fully registered, book-entry form. The global notes will be deposited with or on behalf of DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, or will remain in the custody of the Trustee.

DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear

Beneficial interests in the global notes will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants in DTC. Investors may hold interests in the global notes through either DTC (in the United States), Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, Luxembourg (“Clearstream”), or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (the “Euroclear Operator”), as operator of Euroclear (in Europe), either directly if they are participants of such systems or indirectly through organizations that are participants in such systems. Clearstream and Euroclear will hold interests on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in Clearstream’s and Euroclear’s names on the books of their U.S. depositaries, which in turn will hold such interests in customers’ securities accounts in the U.S. depositaries’ names on the books of DTC. Citibank, N.A. will act as the U.S. depositary for Clearstream, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. will act as the U.S. depositary for Euroclear.

DTC has advised us as follows:

•

DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and a “clearing agency” registered under Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

•

DTC holds securities that its participants deposit with DTC and facilitates the settlement among participants of securities transactions, such as transfers and pledges, in deposited securities through electronic computerized book-entry changes in participants’ accounts, thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of securities certificates.

•

Direct participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and other organizations.

•

DTC is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries.

•

Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as securities brokers and dealers, banks and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a direct participant, either directly or indirectly.

•

The rules applicable to DTC and its direct and indirect participants are on file with the SEC.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have provided the descriptions of the operations and procedures of DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear in this offering memorandum and consent solicitation statement solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of those organizations and are subject to change by them from time to time. None of ConocoPhillips, the Guarantor, the Dealer Managers nor the Trustee takes any responsibility for these operations or procedures, and you are urged to contact DTC, Clearstream and Euroclear or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

We expect that under procedures established by DTC:

•

upon deposit of the global notes with DTC or its custodian, DTC will credit on its internal system the accounts of direct participants designated by the Exchange Agent with portions of the principal amounts of the global notes; and

•

ownership of the Registered Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominee, with respect to interests of direct participants, and the records of direct and indirect participants, with respect to interests of persons other than participants.

The laws of some jurisdictions may require that purchasers of securities take physical delivery of those securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in the Registered Notes represented by a global note to those persons may be limited. In addition, because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in notes represented by a global note to pledge or transfer those interests to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC’s system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest.

So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of a global note, DTC or that nominee will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Registered Notes represented by that global note for all purposes under the Indenture and under the Registered Notes. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global note will not be entitled to have notes represented by that global note registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated notes and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture or under the Registered Notes for any purpose, including with respect to the giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the trustee. Accordingly, each holder owning a beneficial interest in a global note must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if that holder is not a direct or indirect participant, on the procedures of the participant through which that holder owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder of Registered Notes under the Indenture or the global note.

None of CPCo, COP, nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of Registered Notes by DTC, Clearstream or Euroclear, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of those organizations relating to the Registered Notes.

Payments on the Registered Notes represented by the global notes will be made to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner thereof. The Company expects that DTC or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment on the Registered Notes represented by a global note, will credit participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the global note as shown in the records of DTC or its nominee. The Company also expects that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in the global note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practice as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in the names of nominees for such customers. The participants will be responsible for those payments.

Distributions on the Registered Notes held beneficially through Clearstream will be credited to cash accounts of its customers in accordance with its rules and procedures, to the extent received by the U.S. depositary for Clearstream.

Securities clearance accounts and cash accounts with the Euroclear Operator are governed by the Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear and the related Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System, and applicable Belgian law (collectively, the “Terms and Conditions”). The Terms and Conditions

TABLE OF CONTENTS

govern transfers of securities and cash within Euroclear, withdrawals of securities and cash from Euroclear, and receipts of payments with respect to securities in Euroclear. All securities in Euroclear are held on a fungible basis without attribution of specific certificates to specific securities clearance accounts. The Euroclear Operator acts under the Terms and Conditions only on behalf of Euroclear participants and has no record of or relationship with persons holding through Euroclear participants.

Distributions on the Registered Notes held beneficially through Euroclear will be credited to the cash accounts of its participants in accordance with the Terms and Conditions, to the extent received by the U.S. depositary for Euroclear.

Certificated Notes

Certificated notes will be issued to each person that DTC identifies as the beneficial owner of the Registered Notes represented by the global notes upon surrender by DTC of the global notes if:

•

DTC notifies the Company that it is no longer willing or able to act as a depositary for the global notes, and the Company has not appointed a successor depositary within 90 days of that notice;

•

an event of default has occurred and is continuing, and DTC requests the issuance of certificated notes in lieu of all or portion of the global notes; or

•

The Company determines not to have the Registered Notes represented by a global note.

Neither the Company, the Guarantor nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of, the Registered Notes by DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to such Registered Notes. Neither the Company, the Guarantor nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay by the related holder or DTC in identifying the beneficial owners, and each such person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, instructions from such holder or DTC for all purposes (including with respect to the registration and delivery, and the respective principal amounts, of the Registered Notes to be issued).

Morgan Securities LLC, Mizuho Securities USA LLC, TD Securities (USA) LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., MUFG Securities Americas Inc., SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Barclays Capital Inc., BBVA Securities Inc., DNB Markets, Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC, Standard Chartered Bank and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. entered into the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to the Restricted Notes. In the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and COP agreed, among other things, for the benefit of the holders of the Restricted Notes to use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) cause to be filed a registration statement on the appropriate form with respect to a registered offer to exchange each series of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes, with terms substantially identical in all material respects to such series of Restricted Notes (except that the Registered Notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or any increase in annual interest rate) and (2) have such registration statement become effective under the Securities Act on or before June 30, 2023.

If the SEC declares the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part effective, the Company will offer the Registered Notes in exchange for the Restricted Notes. Each of the exchange offers will remain open for at least 20 business days from the date such prospectus is mailed and/or electronically delivered. For each Restricted Note surrendered to the Company under the exchange offers, the holders of such Restricted Note will receive a Registered Note of such series of equal principal amount. Interest on the Registered Notes will accrue from the last interest payment date prior to the expiration time on which interest was paid on the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor, which is expected to be September 15, 2022. A holder of registrable securities that participates in the exchange offers will be required to make certain representations to us. The Company and COP will use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the exchange offers not later than 60 days after the registration statement becomes effective.

Under existing interpretations of the SEC contained in several no-action letters to third parties, the Registered Notes will be freely transferable after the exchange offers without further registration under the Securities Act, except that any broker-dealer that participates in the exchange offers must deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act when it resells the Registered Notes. In addition, under applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC, the Company’s affiliates will not be permitted to exchange their Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers.

The Company and COP will agree to make available, during the period required by the Securities Act, a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act for use by participating broker-dealers and other persons, if any, with similar prospectus delivery requirements for use in connection with any resale of the Registered Notes. Restricted Notes of any series not tendered in the exchange offers will bear interest at the rate set forth in “Description of the Notes” with respect to such series of Restricted Notes and be subject to all the terms and conditions specified in the Indenture, including transfer restrictions, but will not retain any rights under the Registration Rights Agreement (including with respect to increases in annual interest rate described below) after the consummation of the exchange offers.

If the exchange offers may not be completed as soon as practicable after the last date of acceptance for exchange because it would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the staff of the SEC or, if the exchange offers are not for any other reason completed prior to the later of June 30, 2023 and the date on which, under certain circumstances, any holder of Restricted Notes so requests, the Company and COP will use commercially reasonable efforts to file and to have become effective a shelf registration statement relating to resales of the Restricted Notes and to keep that shelf registration statement effective until the date that the Restricted Notes cease to be “registrable securities” (as defined below). The Company and COP will, in the event of such a shelf registration, provide to each participating holder of Restricted Notes copies of a prospectus, notify each participating holder of Restricted Notes when the shelf registration statement has become effective and take certain other actions to permit resales of the Restricted Notes. A holder of registrable securities that sells Restricted Notes under the shelf registration statement generally will be required to make certain representations to the Company and COP, to be named as a selling security holder in the related prospectus and to deliver a prospectus to purchasers, will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act in connection with those sales and will be bound by the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement that are applicable to such a holder of registrable securities

(including certain indemnification obligations). Holders of registrable securities will also be required to suspend their use of the prospectus included in the shelf registration statement under specified circumstances upon receipt of notice from the Company and COP.

If a “registration default” (as defined below) occurs with respect to a series of registrable securities, then additional interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Restricted Notes of a particular series that are registrable securities at a rate of 0.25% per annum (which rate will be increased by an additional 0.25% per annum for each subsequent 90-day period that such additional interest continues to accrue; however, the rate at which such additional interest accrues may in no event exceed 1.00% per annum). The additional interest will cease to accrue when the registration defaults ends. A “registration default” occurs if (i) the registration statement has not been deemed effective on or prior to June 30, 2023 or (ii) the exchange offers are not consummated prior to June 30, 2023 and, if a shelf registration statement is required, such shelf registration statement is not declared effective on or prior to the later of June 30, 2023 and 60 days after delivery of a written request by a holder of Restricted Notes for the filing of a shelf registration, or (iii) if a shelf registration statement is required and after being declared effective, such shelf registration statement ceases to be effective or the prospectus contained therein ceases to be usable for resales of registrable notes (a) on more than two occasions of at least 30 consecutive days until the date on which the Restricted Notes cease to be “registrable notes” or (b) at any time in any 12-month period until the date on which the Restricted Notes cease to be registrable notes, and such failure to remain effective or be usable exists for more than 90 days (whether or not consecutive) in any 12-month period. A registration default ends with respect to a series of Restricted Notes when such Restricted Note ceases to be a “registrable note” or, if earlier (1) in the case of a registration default in the case of a registration default under clause (i) or (ii) of the definition thereof, when the exchange offer is completed or when the shelf registration statement covering such “registrable notes” becomes effective or (2) in the case of a registration default under clause (iii) of the definition thereof, when the registration statement again becomes effective or the prospectus again becomes usable.

The Registration Rights Agreement defines “registrable notes” initially to mean the Restricted Notes and provides that the Restricted Notes will cease to be registrable notes upon the earliest to occur of the following: (1) when a registration statement with respect to such Restricted Notes has become effective and such Restricted Notes have been exchanged or disposed of pursuant to such registration statement, (2) when such Restricted Notes cease to be outstanding, (3) when such Restricted Notes have been resold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (but not Rule 144A) without regard to volume restrictions, so long as the Company shall have removed or caused to be removed any restrictive legend on the Restricted Notes or (4) the date that is three years from March 11, 2022.

Any amounts of additional interest due will be payable in cash on the same original interest payment dates as interest on the Restricted Notes is payable.

This summary of the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety to, all the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a general discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers. It does not purport to contain a complete analysis of all the potential tax considerations relating to the exchange. This discussion is limited to holders of Restricted Notes who hold the Restricted Notes as “capital assets” within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) (generally, property held for investment). This discussion is based upon the Code, the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial authorities and published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”), all as currently in effect, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change or differing interpretation could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth herein.

This discussion is for general information purposes only and does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences and considerations that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of such holder’s particular facts and circumstances and does not apply to holders that are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as, for example, banks or other financial institutions; insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts or mutual funds; holders liable for the alternative minimum tax; certain former citizens or former long-term residents of the United States; U.S. holders having a “functional currency” other than the U.S. dollar; tax-exempt organizations; dealers in securities or currencies; entities or arrangements treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes or other flow-through entities (or investors therein); subchapter S corporations, retirement plans, individual retirement accounts or other tax-deferred accounts; traders in securities that elect to use a mark to market method of accounting; “controlled foreign corporations”; “passive foreign investment companies”; or holders that hold Restricted Notes as part of a straddle, hedge, constructive sale, or conversion transaction or other integrated or risk reduction transaction.

This discussion does not address any tax consequences under U.S. federal tax laws other than those pertaining to income tax, nor does it address any considerations under any state, local or foreign tax laws or under the unearned income Medicare contribution tax pursuant to the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. This discussion also does not address any withholding considerations under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2010 (including the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder and intergovernmental agreements entered into pursuant thereto or in connection therewith). No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences set forth below.

If a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds Restricted Notes, the tax treatment of a person treated as a partner in such partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Such partnerships and partners in such partnerships should consult their tax advisors about the tax consequences of the exchange to them.

This discussion is for general purposes only. All holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors as to the specific tax consequences to them of the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in light of their particular facts and circumstances, including the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal, state, local, foreign or other tax laws.

Consequences of Tendering Restricted Notes

The exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes in the exchange offers will not constitute a taxable exchange for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, you will not recognize gain or loss upon the exchange of Restricted Notes for Registered Notes, your basis in the Registered Notes will be the same as your basis in the Restricted Notes surrendered in exchange therefor immediately before the exchange, and your holding period in the Registered Notes will include your holding period for the Restricted Notes exchanged.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives Registered Notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Registered Notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Registered Notes received in exchange for Restricted Notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making or other trading activities. The Company and COP have agreed that, for a period of up to 180 days after the expiration time of the exchange offers, if requested by one or more such broker-dealers, the Company and COP will amend or supplement this prospectus in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of any Registered Notes by any such broker-dealers.

The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Registered Notes by broker-dealers. Registered Notes received by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the exchange offers may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Registered Notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Registered Notes. Any broker-dealer that resells Registered Notes that were received by it for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers, and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Registered Notes may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit on any such resale of Registered Notes and any commissions or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act.

For a period of 180 days after the expiration time of the exchange offers, the Company and COP will promptly send additional copies of this prospectus and any amendment or supplement to this prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the letter of transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay certain expenses incident to the exchange offers (including the expenses of one counsel for the holders of the Registered Notes) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and the Company and COP will indemnify the holders of the Registered Notes (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
