Repositioning: the Future Takes Shape CONOCOPHILLIPS Fourth Quarter 2011 Repositioning: The future takes shape Aviation achieves higher altitudes of service ConocoPhillips honors the military service of employees “America needs cleaner energy.” “America needs affordable energy.” Who’s right? They both are. That’s why, at ConocoPhillips, we’re helping to power America’s economy by safely accessing one of America’s most abun- dant energy resources: natural gas. Which creates jobs. Has less emissions. And answers both their concerns. To find out why natural gas is the right answer, visit PowerInCooperation.com © CoCononococoPhhilillilipss Como paanyny. 20201111. AlA l riighhtst rese ere veved.d Sharing Insights Ryan Lance, future Chairman and CEO of the new ConocoPhillips We are entering a new era for ConocoPhillips, and I am excited to be the designated chairman and CEO at such an important time. I realize that the repositioning effort is often tedious – with many moving parts and pieces – and appreciate the patience and focus employees have demonstrated as all the vital ele- ments gradually come together. It will take our combined efforts to complete this transition as smoothly as possible, and I couldn’t be more confident in our success. As I think about our future, opportunities to pursue new exploration plays, grow production of nonconventional oil and gas, and find better ways to do our jobs together go through my mind. Our possibilities are amazing. As a pure-play company, we will be more agile – able to act faster and with greater focus – to capture these opportuni- ties. I look forward to working with both the current and future skilled and talented ConocoPhillips employees, as we embark on this journey. Throughout my career, I have experienced a great deal of change and have learned that change drives progress and achievement. Our future is bright, and together, we can help ConocoPhillips become not only the largest player in the independent exploration and production sector, but the acknowledged leader in efficiency and competitiveness. I believe that the best is yet to come for our company. Greg Garland, future Chairman and CEO of Phillips 66 This is an exciting time in our history, and it was with great enthusiasm that I accepted the role as future chairman and CEO of Phillips 66. Before returning to ConocoPhillips in 2010, I had the pleasure of being the CEO of Chevron Phillips Chemical, our chemicals co-venture that contributes substantially to our com- pany’s profitability by extending our presence in the energy value chain. But far from being a newcomer, I began my career with Phillips in 1980 and worked more than 20 years in a variety of technical and management positions in the plastics, planning, technology, and exploration and production arenas. So, like many of my fellow employees, my connections to ConocoPhillips run deep. It is those strong connections that give me confidence in our ability to successfully reposition our company and provide Phillips 66 with the capability to prosper as a separate entity. The businesses that will make up Phillips 66 – refining and marketing, chemicals, and midstream – are already leaders in their industry segments. As always, our job remains supplying consumers and business with the fuels and petrochemicals that are essential to modern life. With such strong positions in all our businesses, I look forward to the opportunities and the challenges that tomorrow will bring and to leading a highly experienced, capable, diverse and knowledgeable global workforce during the years ahead.

REPOSITIONING Focus 64 ConocoPhillips ConocoPhillips moves toward a new era by Kristi Richardson with Aftab Ahmed and James Bartlett ConocoPhillips is moving toward a new era in its rich history. Since announcing plans to reposition into two leading energy firms, the company has focused on a promising future. “We’re creating these two companies out of the ConocoPhillips we know today because we believe this is the best way to succeed and be competitive over the long term,” Chairman and CEO Jim Mulva said. “By adapting to shifting markets and political environments, winning companies put themselves in the best position to succeed.” on the future REACHING MAJOR MILESTONES Repositioning is a complex process, and early on, the transition steering committee laid out progressive milestones that had to be met to enable completion of the transition during the second quarter of 2012. Their efforts, with the help of eight transition teams, employ a highly organized, deliberate approach that has achieved steady progress since the initial announce- ment on July 14. One of the most significant milestones was the naming of chairman and CEO designees for the two future companies. Greg Garland, senior vice president, Exploration and Produc- tion, Americas, will lead the new downstream company, Phillips 66. It will be headquartered in Houston. The future ConocoPhillips will also remain in Houston under the leadership of Ryan Lance, senior vice president, Exploration and Production, International.
