(a) General Rule. Except as provided in Section 4.04(b), with respect to any Tax Return that Phillips 66 has the obligation and right to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, under Section 4.03, to the extent Tax Items reported on such Tax Return might reasonably be expected to affect Taxes (or rights to Tax Benefits) for which ConocoPhillips is responsible (or to which ConocoPhillips is entitled) under this Agreement, such Tax Return shall, in the case of a Tax Return that is not a UK Tax Return, be prepared in accordance with the past practice of the ConocoPhillips Group in determining accrued assets and liabilities for cash taxes on the books and records of ConocoPhillips and its subsidiaries and the past return filing practice of the ConocoPhillips Group with respect to the relevant Tax Return (including any past accounting methods, elections and conventions) (the “ConocoPhillips Past Practice”) and, in the case of a UK Tax Return, on a basis which is consistent with the basis on which UK Tax Documents already submitted by or on behalf of the relevant taxpayer to HM Revenue & Customs were prepared and filed (the “ConocoPhillips UK Tax Practice”), unless (i) any Tax Items with respect to the Tax Returns in question are not covered by the ConocoPhillips Past Practice or the

ConocoPhillips UK Tax Practice (as relevant) (in which case, with respect to such Tax Items, such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by ConocoPhillips), (ii) no Substantial Authority exists for the ConocoPhillips Past Practice or the ConocoPhillips UK Tax Practice (as relevant) with respect to any Tax Items reportable on the Tax Returns in question (in which case, with respect to such Tax Items, such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by ConocoPhillips), or (iii) there is no adverse effect to ConocoPhillips (in which case, the Tax Returns in question shall be prepared in accordance with reasonable Tax accounting practices selected by Phillips 66).

(b) Reporting of Transactions. The Tax treatment of the Transactions reported on any Tax Return shall be consistent with the treatment thereof in the Ruling Requests and the Tax Opinions/Rulings, unless there is no reasonable basis for such Tax treatment. To the extent there is a Tax treatment relating to the Transactions which is not covered by the Ruling Requests or the Tax Opinions/Rulings, the Tax treatment of the Transactions reported on any Tax Return for which Phillips 66 is the Responsible Party shall be consistent with that on any Tax Return filed or to be filed by ConocoPhillips or any member of the ConocoPhillips Group or caused or to be caused to be filed by ConocoPhillips (“ConocoPhillips Group Transaction Returns”), unless there is no reasonable basis for such Tax treatment. To the extent there is a Tax treatment relating to the Transactions which is not covered by the Ruling Requests, the Tax Opinions/Rulings or ConocoPhillips Group Transaction Returns, the Companies shall agree on the Tax treatment to be reported on any Tax Return. For this purpose, the Tax treatment shall be determined by ConocoPhillips and shall be agreed to by Phillips 66 unless either (i) no Substantial Authority exists for the technical merits of the position, or (ii) such Tax treatment is inconsistent with the Tax treatment contemplated in the Ruling Requests, the Tax Opinions/Rulings and/or the ConocoPhillips Group Transaction Returns. Any dispute regarding such Tax treatment shall be referred for resolution pursuant to Section 12, sufficiently in advance of the filing date of such Tax Return (including extensions) to permit timely filing of the Tax Return.

Section 4.05 Consolidated or Combined Tax Returns. Phillips 66 will elect and join, and will cause its respective Affiliates to elect and join, in filing any ConocoPhillips State Combined Income Tax Returns and any Joint Returns that ConocoPhillips determines are required to be filed or that ConocoPhillips chooses to file pursuant to Section 4.02(b).

(a) ConocoPhillips Federal Consolidated Income Tax Returns and ConocoPhillips State Combined Income Tax Returns. ConocoPhillips shall make any ConocoPhillips Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return and ConocoPhillips State Combined Income Tax Return (other than any such Tax Return for which Phillips 66 is the Responsible Company) and any workpapers related to any such Tax Return available for review by Phillips 66, if requested by Phillips 66. ConocoPhillips shall use its reasonable best efforts to make such Tax Return available to Phillips 66 for review and comment as required under this paragraph prior to the due date (including extensions) for filing of such Tax Return. Phillips 66 shall use reasonable best efforts to respond in writing to ConocoPhillips with any comments no later than the date on which ConocoPhillips files such Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority, provided, however that Phillips 66’s comments shall be limited to the reporting of any material Tax Item

on such Tax Return with respect to which Phillips 66 reasonably believes that no Substantial Authority exists for the technical merits of the position. ConocoPhillips shall reasonably consider such comments with respect to the reporting of any such material Tax Item on such Return (including considering whether to revise the reporting of such Tax Item on such Tax Return prior to filing such Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority, file an amended Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority revising the reporting of such Tax Item, or pursue an adjustment to the reporting of such Tax Item in connection with a Tax Contest with respect to such Tax Return or make no change).

(b) Certain Other Joint Returns and Separate Returns. The Responsible Company with respect to any material Joint Return (other than any ConocoPhillips Consolidated Federal Income Tax Return or any ConocoPhillips State Combined Income Tax Return for which ConocoPhillips is the Responsible Company) or material Separate Return shall make such Tax Return and related workpapers available for review by the other Company, if requested by the other Company, to the extent (i) such Tax Return relates to Taxes for which the requesting party would reasonably be expected to be liable under applicable Tax Law or responsible under this Agreement, (ii) such Tax Return relates to Taxes and the requesting party would reasonably be expected to be liable under applicable Tax Law or responsible under this Agreement in whole or in part for any additional Taxes owing as a result of adjustments to the amount of such Taxes reported on such Tax Return, (iii) such Tax Return relates to Taxes for which the requesting party would reasonably be expected to have a claim for Tax Benefits under this Agreement, (iv) the requesting party reasonably determines that it must inspect such Tax Return to confirm compliance with the terms of this Agreement, (v) such Tax Return relates to an Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender, or (vi) such Tax Return relates to a Transfer Pricing Adjustment relating to a transaction or transactions involving a member of the requesting party’s Group. The Responsible Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to make such Tax Return available for review and comment as required under this paragraph prior to the due date (including extensions) for filing of such Tax Return. The requesting party shall use reasonable best efforts to respond in writing to the Responsible Party with any comments no later than the date on which the Responsible Party files such Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority provided, however that (x) if ConocoPhillips is the Responsible Company, Phillips 66’s comments shall be limited to the reporting of any material Tax Item on such Tax Return with respect to which Phillips 66 reasonably believes that no Substantial Authority exists for the technical merits of the position and (y) if Phillips 66 is the Responsible Company, ConocoPhillips’ comments shall be limited to the reporting of any material Tax Item on such Tax Return with respect to which ConocoPhillips reasonably believes that no Substantial Authority exists for the technical merits of the position or the reporting of any Tax Item on such Tax Return in accordance with this Agreement or the ConocoPhillips Past Practice or ConocoPhillips UK Tax Practice, as applicable. The Responsible Party shall reasonably consider such comments with respect to the reporting of any such material Tax Item on such Return (including considering whether to revise the reporting of such Tax Item on such Tax Return prior to filing such Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority, file an amended Tax Return with the applicable Tax Authority revising the reporting of such Tax Item, or pursue an adjustment to the reporting of such Tax Item in connection with a Tax Contest with respect to such Tax Return or make no change).

(c) Execution of Returns Prepared by Other Party. In the case of any Tax Return which is required to be prepared and filed by one Company under this Agreement and which is required by Law to be signed by the other Company or its Affiliate (or by an authorized representative thereof), the Company which is legally required to sign such Tax Return (or whose Affiliate is legally required to sign or an authorized representative thereof) shall not be required to sign such Tax Return under this Agreement if there is no reasonable basis for the Tax treatment of any Tax Item reported on the Tax Return or the Tax treatment of any Tax Item reported on the Tax Return should, in the opinion of a Tax advisor from a nationally recognized legal, accounting or professional tax services firm, subject the other Company or its Affiliate (or its authorized representatives) to material penalties.

Section 4.07 Phillips 66 Carrybacks and Claims for Refund. Phillips 66 hereby agrees that, unless ConocoPhillips consents in writing, (a) no Adjustment Request with respect to any Joint Return shall be filed, and (b) any available elections to waive the right to claim in any Pre-Distribution Period with respect to any Joint Return any Phillips 66 Carryback arising in a Post-Distribution Period shall be made, and no affirmative election shall be made to claim any such Phillips 66 Carryback; provided, however, that the parties agree that any such Adjustment Request shall be made with respect to any Phillips 66 Carryback related to Federal Taxes or State Taxes, as applicable, upon the reasonable request of Phillips 66, if such Phillips 66 Carryback is necessary to prevent the loss of the Federal and/or State Tax Benefit of such Phillips 66 Carryback (including, but not limited to, an Adjustment Request with respect to a Phillips 66 Carryback of a capital loss for Federal and/or State Tax purposes arising in a Post-Distribution Period to a Pre-Distribution Period) and such Adjustment Request, based on ConocoPhillips’ sole, reasonable determination, will cause no Tax detriment to ConocoPhillips, the ConocoPhillips Group or any member of the ConocoPhillips Group. Any Adjustment Request which ConocoPhillips consents to make under this Section 4.07 shall be prepared and filed by the Responsible Company for the Joint Return to be adjusted.

Section 4.08 Apportionment of Earnings and Profits and Tax Attributes. ConocoPhillips shall in good faith advise Phillips 66 in writing of the portion, if any, of any earnings and profits, Tax Attribute, overall foreign loss or other consolidated, combined or unitary attribute which ConocoPhillips determines shall be allocated or apportioned to the Phillips 66 Group under applicable Law. Phillips 66 and all members of the Phillips 66 Group shall prepare all Tax Returns in accordance with such written notice. In the event that any temporary or final amendments to Treasury Regulations are promulgated after the date of this Agreement that provide for any election to apply such regulations retroactively, then any such election shall be made only to the extent that ConocoPhillips determines to make such election. As soon as practicable after receipt of a written request from Phillips 66, ConocoPhillips shall provide copies of any studies, reports, and workpapers supporting the earnings and profits and other Tax Attributes allocable to Phillips 66. In the event of a subsequent adjustment to the earnings and profits or any Tax Attributes determined by ConocoPhillips, ConocoPhillips shall promptly notify Phillips 66 in writing of such adjustment.

(b) Treatment of Interest Payments Under This Agreement. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, to the extent one Company (the “Indemnitor”) makes a payment of interest to another Company (the “Indemnitee”) under this Agreement with respect to the period from the date that the Indemnitee made a payment of a Tax to a Tax Authority to the date that the Indemnitor reimbursed the Indemnitee for such Tax payment, the interest payment shall be treated as interest expense to the Indemnitor (deductible to the extent provided by Law) and as interest income by the Indemnitee (includible in income to the extent provided by Law).

or indirectly stock representing a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in Phillips 66 or Phillips 66 Company or otherwise jeopardize the Tax-Free Status, unless prior to taking any such action set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), (x) Phillips 66 shall have requested that ConocoPhillips obtain a Ruling in accordance with Section 6.03(b) and (d) of this Agreement to the effect that such transaction will not affect the Tax-Free Status and ConocoPhillips shall have received such a Ruling in form and substance satisfactory to ConocoPhillips in its sole and absolute discretion, which discretion shall be exercised in good faith solely to preserve the Tax-Free Status (and in determining whether a Ruling is satisfactory, ConocoPhillips may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and management’s representations made in connection with such Ruling), (y) Phillips 66 shall provide ConocoPhillips with an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance satisfactory to ConocoPhillips in its sole and absolute discretion, which discretion shall be exercised in good faith solely to preserve the Tax-Free Status (and in determining whether an opinion is satisfactory, ConocoPhillips may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and management’s representations if used as a basis for the opinion and ConocoPhillips may determine that no opinion would be acceptable to ConocoPhillips) or (z) ConocoPhillips shall have waived the requirement to obtain such Ruling or Unqualified Tax Opinion.

Phillips 66 or ConocoPhillips, as applicable, shall provide such Tax Packages (i) containing information or documents in such form as the Responsible Company reasonably requests (or, in the absence of such request, in such form as historically provided to the Responsible Company for the purposes of preparing and filing the applicable Tax Returns) and (ii) in sufficient time for the Responsible Company to file the applicable Tax Returns on a timely basis.

Section 7.03 Reliance by ConocoPhillips. If any member of the Phillips 66 Group supplies information to a member of the ConocoPhillips Group in connection with a Tax liability and an officer of a member of the ConocoPhillips Group signs a statement or other document under penalties of perjury in reliance upon the accuracy of such information, then upon the written request of such member of the ConocoPhillips Group identifying the information being so relied upon, the chief financial officer of Phillips 66 (or any officer of Phillips 66 as designated by the chief financial officer of Phillips 66) shall certify in writing that to his or her knowledge (based upon consultation with appropriate employees) the information so supplied is accurate and complete. Each of Phillips 66 and Phillips 66 Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the ConocoPhillips Group and its directors, officers and employees from and against any fine, penalty, or other cost or expense of any kind attributable to a member of the Phillips 66 Group having supplied, pursuant to this Section 7, a member of the ConocoPhillips Group with inaccurate or incomplete information in connection with a Tax liability.

Section 8. Tax Records.

Section 8.01 Retention of Tax Records. Each Company shall preserve and keep all Tax Records exclusively relating to the assets and activities of its Group for Pre-Distribution Periods, and ConocoPhillips shall preserve and keep all other Tax Records relating to Taxes of the Groups for Pre-Distribution Tax Periods, for so long as the contents thereof may become material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law, but in any event until the later of (a) the expiration of any applicable statutes of limitations, or (b) seven years after the Distribution Date (such later date, the “Retention Date”). After the Retention Date, each Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior written notice to the other Company. If, prior to the Retention Date, a Company reasonably determines that any Tax Records which it would otherwise be required to preserve and keep under this Section 8 are no longer material in the administration of any matter under the Code or other applicable Tax Law and the other Company agrees, then such first Company may dispose of such Tax Records upon 90 days’ prior notice to the other Company. Any notice of an intent to dispose given pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall include a list of the Tax Records to be disposed of describing in reasonable detail each file, book, or other record accumulation being disposed. The notified Company shall have the opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy or remove, within such 90-

day period, all or any part of such Tax Records. If, at any time prior to the Retention Date, Phillips 66 or Phillips 66 Company determines to decommission or otherwise discontinue any computer program or information technology system used to access or store any Tax Records, then Phillips 66 or Phillips 66 Company may decommission or discontinue such program or system upon 90 days’ prior notice to ConocoPhillips and ConocoPhillips shall have the opportunity, at its cost and expense, to copy, within such 90-day period, all or any part of the underlying data relating to the Tax Records accessed by or stored on such program or system.

Section 8.02 Access to Tax Records. The Companies and their respective Affiliates shall make available to each other for inspection and copying during normal business hours upon reasonable notice all Tax Records (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any pertinent underlying data accessed or stored on any computer program or information technology system) in their possession and shall permit the other Company and its Affiliates, authorized agents and representatives and any representative of a Taxing Authority or other Tax auditor direct access during normal business hours upon reasonable notice to any computer program or information technology system used to access or store any Tax Records, in each case to the extent reasonably required by the other Company in connection with the preparation of Tax Returns or financial accounting statements, audits, litigation, or the resolution of items under this Agreement.

Section 9. Tax Contests.

Section 9.01 Notice. Each of the Companies shall provide prompt notice to the other Company of any written communication from a Tax Authority regarding any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment or proceeding or other Tax Contest of which it or its Affiliate becomes aware related to Taxes for Tax Periods for which it is indemnified by the other Company hereunder. Such notice shall attach copies of the pertinent portion of any written communication from a Tax Authority and contain factual information (to the extent known) describing any asserted Tax liability in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Tax Authority in respect of any such matters; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not be relieved of its obligations hereunder by reason of any failure by the Indemnitee to so notify except to the extent the Indemnitor was materially harmed by such failure.

Section 9.02 Control of Tax Contests.

(a) Separate Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return for any Pre-Distribution Period or any Straddle Period:

(i) If the Tax Contest relates exclusively to Taxes for which Phillips 66 is responsible under Section 2, Phillips 66 shall have exclusive control over such Tax Contest, except insofar as ConocoPhillips shall have exclusive control over such Tax Contest pursuant to Section 9.02(a)(ii)(B) and subject to Section 9.02(c)(i) and (d) below; and

(ii) If the Tax Contest relates (A) exclusively to Taxes for which ConocoPhillips is responsible under Section 2, (B) exclusively to Taxes for which Phillips 66 is responsible under Section 2 and ConocoPhillips determines in good faith that Phillips 66 has failed to defend diligently such Tax Contest, or (C) to Taxes for which both ConocoPhillips and

Phillips 66 are responsible under Section 2, ConocoPhillips shall (in the case of Tax Contests described in Section 9.02(a)(ii)(B), at ConocoPhillips’ option) have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, subject to Section 9.02(c)(i) and (d) below.

(b) Joint Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any ConocoPhillips Federal Consolidated Income Tax Return, ConocoPhillips State Combined Income Tax Return or other Joint Return, in each case, for any Pre-Distribution Period or Straddle Period, ConocoPhillips shall have exclusive control over the Tax Contest, including exclusive authority with respect to any settlement of such Tax liability, subject to Section 9.02(c)(ii) below.

(c) Settlement Rights and Certain Other Rights.

(i) Separate Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return, the Controlling Party shall have the sole right to contest, litigate, compromise and settle any such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior consent of the Non-Controlling Party; provided, however, that if Phillips 66 is the Controlling Party with respect to any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return which Tax Contest would reasonably be expected to have an adverse impact on ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66 shall not compromise or settle such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior consent of ConocoPhillips. Unless waived by the parties in writing, in connection with any potential adjustment in such Tax Contest (x) with respect to any Separate Return as a result of which adjustment the Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment (or any payment under Section 2.07) to the Controlling Party under this Agreement or (y) with respect to any Specified Separate Return: (A) the Controlling Party shall keep the Non-Controlling Party informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Controlling Party with respect to such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest; (B) the Controlling Party shall provide the Non-Controlling Party copies of any written materials relating to such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest received from any Tax Authority; (C) the Controlling Party shall consult with the Non-Controlling Party before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest and shall offer the Non-Controlling Party a reasonable opportunity to comment before submitting any such written materials; and (D) the Controlling Party shall timely provide the Non-Controlling Party with copies of any correspondence or filings submitted to any Tax Authority or judicial authority in connection with such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest. The failure of the Controlling Party to take any action specified in the preceding sentence with respect to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that the Non-Controlling Party was materially harmed by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party.

(ii) Joint Returns. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to Joint Returns, the Controlling Party shall have the sole right to contest, litigate, compromise and settle any such Tax Contest without obtaining the prior consent of the Non-Controlling Party. Unless waived by the parties in writing, in connection with any potential adjustment in such Tax Contest as a result of which adjustment the Non-Controlling Party may

reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment (or any payment under Section 2.07) to the Controlling Party under this Agreement: (A) the Controlling Party shall keep the Non-Controlling Party informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by the Controlling Party with respect to such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest; (B) the Controlling Party shall provide the Non-Controlling Party copies of any written materials relating to such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest received from any Tax Authority; and (C) the Controlling Party shall consult with the Non-Controlling Party before submitting any written materials prepared or furnished in connection with such potential adjustment in such Tax Contest. Phillips 66 shall not be entitled to attend meetings or teleconferences with the Tax Authority in connection with any Tax Contest with respect to any Joint Returns, except that, in connection with any Special Joint Tax Contest, Phillips 66 shall be entitled to attend such portion of any meeting or teleconference as pertains to Phillips 66. The failure of the Controlling Party to take any action specified in the second preceding sentence with respect to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that the Non-Controlling Party was materially harmed by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party. ConocoPhillips shall be entitled to permit Phillips 66 to conduct any portion of a Special Joint Tax Contest on such terms and conditions as ConocoPhillips shall determine in its sole discretion.

(d) Tax Contest Participation. In the case of any Tax Contest with respect to any Separate Return, unless waived by the parties in writing, the Controlling Party shall provide the Non-Controlling Party with written notice reasonably in advance of, and the Non-Controlling Party shall have the right to attend, any formally scheduled meetings with Tax Authorities or hearings or proceedings before any judicial authorities in connection with any potential adjustment in a Tax Contest pursuant to which the Non-Controlling Party may reasonably be expected to become liable to make any indemnification payment (or any payment under Section 2.07) to the Controlling Party under this Agreement or with respect to any Specified Separate Return. The failure of the Controlling Party to provide any notice specified in this Section 9.02(d) to the Non-Controlling Party shall not relieve the Non-Controlling Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party under this Agreement except to the extent that the Non-Controlling Party was materially harmed by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Controlling Party from any other liability or obligation which it may have to the Controlling Party.

(e) Power of Attorney. Each member of the Phillips 66 Group shall execute and deliver to ConocoPhillips (or such member of the ConocoPhillips Group as ConocoPhillips shall designate) any power of attorney or other similar document reasonably requested by ConocoPhillips (or such designee) in connection with any Tax Contest (as to which ConocoPhillips is the Controlling Party) described in this Section 9.

Section 10. Effective Date; Termination of Prior Intercompany Tax Allocation Agreements.

This Agreement shall be effective as of the date hereof. As of the date hereof, (a) all prior intercompany Tax allocation agreements shall be terminated, and (b) amounts due under such agreements as of the date hereof shall be settled before the Distribution Date. Upon such termination and settlement, no further payments by or to ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66 or any member of their respective Group, with respect to such agreements shall be made, and all other rights and obligations resulting from such agreements between the Companies and their Affiliates shall cease at such time. The prior practice of ConocoPhillips of creating intercompany obligations in respect of Tax allocations with respect to the Phillips 66 Business shall be terminated effective immediately prior to the Distribution on the Distribution Date, and amounts due under any such remaining intercompany obligations shall be settled in the ordinary course.

Section 11. Survival of Obligations.

The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement shall be unconditional and absolute and shall remain in effect without limitation as to time.

Section 12. Dispute Resolution.

The Companies mutually desire that friendly collaboration will continue between them. Accordingly, they will try, and they will cause their respective Group members to try, to resolve in an amicable manner all disagreements and misunderstandings relating to their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including the validity, interpretation, breach or termination thereof (a “Dispute”), the Tax departments of the Companies shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the Dispute. If such good faith negotiations do not resolve the Dispute, then the Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Article IV of the Indemnification and Release Agreement, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such Dispute unless otherwise specified in Article IV of the Indemnification and Release Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Indemnification and Release Agreement, the Separation and Distribution Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66 are the only members of their respective Group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, and each of ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66 will cause its respective Group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such party as provided in this Section 12.

Section 13. Expenses.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party and its Affiliates shall bear their own expenses incurred in connection with preparation of Tax Returns, Tax Contests, and other matters related to Taxes under the provisions of this Agreement.

Part A: UK Tax Matters

Paragraph 1. General Principle.

Save as expressly provided in this Agreement, and without prejudice to the rights and obligations contained in this Schedule, each member of the ConocoPhillips Group and each member of the Phillips 66 Group shall be responsible for discharging any UK Tax Liability that may fall on it and shall be entitled to any UK Relief arising to it, and none of the parties to this Agreement indemnifies or otherwise agrees to make payment to, or to procure the making of payment to, the other in relation thereto.

Paragraph 2. Management of Pre-Distribution UK Tax Affairs.

Paragraph 2.01. VAT Grouping.

(a) ConocoPhillips shall procure that (if one has not already been made) an application shall be made to HM Revenue & Customs pursuant to section 43B of the Value Added Tax Act 1994 for the exclusion of each member of the Phillips 66 Group that has previously been a member of ConocoPhillips UK Topco’s VAT group from the bodies corporate treated as members of ConocoPhillips UK Topco’s VAT group and for such exclusion to take effect from the time of the Distribution or, if HM Revenue & Customs do not permit this, at the earliest date following the Distribution permitted.

(b) Phillips 66 shall contribute, or shall procure that each member of the Phillips 66 Group which was a member of ConocoPhillips UK Topco’s VAT group contributes, to the representative member of such VAT group such proportion of any VAT for which the representative member is accountable as is properly attributable to supplies, acquisitions and importations (“supplies”) made by each member of the Phillips 66 Group whilst a member of ConocoPhillips UK Topco’s VAT group (less such amount of deductible input tax as is properly attributable to such supplies), such contribution to be made in cleared funds on the day which is the later of 30 days after demand is made therefor, and four Business Days before the day on which the representative member is required to account for such VAT to HM Revenue & Customs. ConocoPhillips shall pay, or shall procure that there is paid, to Immingham CHP LLP (on behalf of itself and each other relevant member of the Phillips 66 Group) an amount equivalent to such proportion of any repayment of VAT received by the representative member from HM Revenue & Customs or of any credit obtained by reference to an excess of deductible input tax over output tax that is properly attributable to supplies made to and by members of the Phillips 66 Group whilst members of ConocoPhillips UK Topco’s VAT group (but excluding any part of such repayment or credit that is attributable to interest payable by HM Revenue & Customs), promptly after its receipt by, or offset against a liability of, the representative member. Phillips 66 shall provide such information as may be required to enable the representative member to make the returns and provide the information required to be provided for VAT purposes.

Paragraph 2.02 . Group Payment Arrangement.

(a) ConocoPhillips shall procure that the UK Nominated Company will, in accordance with the UK GPA, give notice to HM Revenue & Customs to the effect that all members of the Phillips 66 Group will cease from the Distribution to be members of the same group of companies as the UK Nominated Company within the meaning of section 36 of the Finance Act 1998 or section 59F of the Taxes Management Act 1970.

(b) Phillips 66 shall procure that each member of the Phillips 66 Group which was a member of the UK GPA contributes to the UK Nominated Company, within 30 days after written demand is made therefor (or, if later, four Business Days before the amount becomes due and payable to HM Revenue & Customs), an amount equal to any instalment of UK Corporation Tax which is to be or has been discharged by the UK Nominated Company on behalf of the member of the Phillips 66 Group in question pursuant to the UK GPA (including, without limitation, through payment of a balance of monies payable pursuant to the UK GPA) as certified by the UK Nominated Company (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any amount in respect of interest payable in respect of any such instalment of UK Corporation Tax to HM Revenue & Customs), provided that no such contribution shall be made to the extent that such contribution was made prior to or at the time of the Distribution.

(c) ConocoPhillips shall:

(i) procure that the UK Nominated Company shall, to the extent that it has not made such payment prior to the Distribution, pay to HM Revenue & Customs when the relevant amount is due and payable to HM Revenue & Customs (or promptly following receipt of the contribution by the relevant member of the Phillips 66 Group in respect of the relevant amount, if such contribution is received after the date when the relevant amount is due and payable to HM Revenue & Customs) an amount equal to any amount contributed after the Distribution to the UK Nominated Company by any member of the Phillips 66 Group pursuant to the UK GPA in respect of any instalment of UK Corporation Tax;

(ii) procure that the UK Nominated Company shall (subject to paragraph (iii) below) apportion to the relevant member of the Phillips 66 Group each amount contributed before or after the Distribution to the UK Nominated Company by any member of the Phillips 66 Group pursuant to the UK GPA in respect of any instalment of UK Corporation Tax (a “Contributed Amount”), such apportionment to be made by reference to the instalment or instalments of UK Corporation Tax in respect of which the Contributed Amount was paid; and

(iii) within 30 days after the relevant UK Corporation Tax has finally been apportioned, pay, or procure that there is paid, to the relevant member of the Phillips 66 Group an amount equal to any excess of any Contributed Amount in respect of any instalment of UK Corporation Tax over the amount of UK Corporation Tax finally apportioned to that member of the Phillips 66 Group in respect of that instalment (for the avoidance of doubt, taking no account of any interest payable by HM Revenue & Customs in respect of such excessive Contributed Amount).

Paragraph 3. Group Relief Surrenders between the Groups.

Paragraph 3.01. ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66 shall procure that after the Distribution no claim, election, surrender, notice or consent is made in respect of any Group Relief Surrender by a member of the ConocoPhillips Group to a member of the Phillips 66 Group (or vice versa) other than pursuant to this Paragraph 3.

Paragraph 3.02. Subject to the remainder of this Paragraph 3, ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66 shall use all reasonable endeavors to procure that each Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender referred to in Appendix 1 shall be made (and not later amended) or, if made prior to the Distribution, shall not be amended.

Paragraph 3.03. No payment shall be made by the company receiving an Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender, or by any other member of its Group, for any Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender (including for any increase in the amount of any Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender in accordance with Paragraph 3.05); and no payment shall be made by a company surrendering an Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender, or any member of its Group, in respect of any tax liability falling on a company receiving such Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender because the amount of such Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender is reduced in accordance with Paragraph 3.04.

Paragraph 3.04. If the amount of any Corresponding Relievable Loss is certified by the person to whom that loss arises to be in fact less than the amount given for that Corresponding Relievable Loss in Appendix 1, then the amount of any Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender in respect of that Corresponding Relievable Loss will be reduced accordingly. Any necessary allocation of the reduction shall be determined by Phillips 66 (if the reduction is in a Corresponding Relievable Loss assumed to be surrendered to more than one member of the Phillips 66 Group) or by ConocoPhillips (if the reduction is in a Corresponding Relievable Loss assumed to be surrendered to more than one member of the ConocoPhillips Group).

Paragraph 3.05. If a person who is a member of a Group has a Corresponding Relievable Loss in respect of a UK Accounting Period referred to in Appendix 1 which is in fact greater than a Corresponding Relievable Loss assumed for that member in Appendix 1, the amount thereof shall be certified by that person as soon as reasonably practicable to Phillips 66 (where the person with the Corresponding Relievable Loss is a member of the ConocoPhillips Group) or to ConocoPhillips (where the person with the Corresponding Relievable Loss is a member of the Phillips 66 Group) and an Agreed UK Group Relief Surrender in respect of that Corresponding Relievable Loss may, if requested by Phillips 66 or ConocoPhillips, as the case may be, for the other Group, be increased or made (including as an additional Group Relief Surrender to another member of the other Group) but only to the extent that the amount of the Corresponding Relievable Loss that exceeds the amount set out for that Corresponding Relievable Loss in Appendix 1 cannot be used by the person to whom that Corresponding Relievable Loss arises, or by another member of the same UK Tax Group, other than in a UK Accounting Period of that person subsequent to the UK Accounting Period in which that Corresponding Relievable Loss arises.

Paragraph 3.06. Subject to the other provisions of this Paragraph 3, if a company which is a member of a UK Tax Group has lower profits available to be relieved by a Group Relief Surrender than are assumed by Appendix 1 then Phillips 66 (in the case of the Phillips 66 UK Tax Group) or ConocoPhillips (in the case of the ConocoPhillips UK Tax Group) may require that a Group Relief Surrender of all or part of the Corresponding Relievable Loss in question is reallocated to another member of the same UK Tax Group.

Paragraph 3.07. ConocoPhillips and Phillips 66 shall each use all reasonable endeavors as respects its Group to procure that claims, adjustments, elections, surrenders, notices, consents (including adjustments to any of these) and other procedural matters required to give effect to this Paragraph 3 shall occur, within applicable UK Time Limits.

Paragraph 4. Other Surrenders and Similar Matters.

Paragraph 4.01. Transfer Pricing. Subject to its compliance with Section 4.06(b) of this Agreement, no balancing or other payment shall be made by any member of either Group to a member of the other Group in respect of any Transfer Pricing Adjustment or compensating adjustment in respect of a UK Accounting Period ending on or before, or commencing before and ending after, the Distribution, including in respect of any alteration to any such Transfer Pricing Adjustment.

Paragraph 4.02. Surrenders. No Non Group Relief Surrender shall be made after the Distribution by any member of either Group to a member of the other Group in respect of which no claim, election, surrender, notice or consent has been made on or prior to the Distribution.
