STOCK-SETTLED STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT AGREEMENT

GRANTEE: [NAME] [OPTIONEE ID]

Congratulations! You have been granted a Stock-Settled Stock Appreciation Right (“SAR Award”) with respect to shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Stock”), of EOG Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) as follows:

Date of Grant						[GRANT DATE]
Total Number of SARs Granted						[# SHARES]
Award Price per SAR						[AWARD PRICE]

The Compensation Committee of the Board of the Company hereby grants to you, the above-named Grantee, effective as of the Date of Grant set forth above, a SAR Award that entitles you to receive, upon exercise hereof, the number of shares of Stock determined by multiplying the excess of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the Award Price per SAR set forth above by the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the SAR Award is exercised and dividing the resulting product by the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise. This SAR Award is exercisable in accordance with the vesting schedule and terms set forth below.

General. This SAR Award Agreement (this “Agreement”) is governed by the terms and conditions of the EOG Resources, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (as may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), which is hereby made a part of this Agreement. All capitalized terms that are not defined in this Agreement have the meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.

Vesting. Assuming your continuous employment with the Company or an Affiliate, this SAR Award will become vested in 33.3% increments on the one-year and two-year anniversaries of the Date of Grant, and in an increment of 33.4% on the three-year anniversary of the Date of Grant, and will be exercisable after vesting unless and until forfeited or canceled as noted in the paragraphs below. To the extent vested, this SAR Award may be exercised in whole or in part unless and until it terminates or is forfeited or canceled.

Tax Obligations. To the extent that the exercise of this SAR Award results in income to you for federal, state or local income, employment or other tax purposes with respect to which the Company or an Affiliate has a withholding obligation, the Company or such Affiliate is authorized to withhold from the shares subject to this SAR Award any tax required to be withheld by reason of such taxable income, sufficient to satisfy the withholding obligation.

Term. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, in no event may any of this SAR Award be exercised after the seventh anniversary of the Date of Grant.

Exercise. You must exercise this SAR Award through the Company's designated broker, UBS Financial Services, Inc. ("UBS") by accessing its website at xxxxx://xxxxxxxxx.xxx.xxx/xxx or by calling 0.000.000.0000. You will be notified if the designated broker is changed. If you have been notified that you must consult with a member of the Company's Legal Department prior to engaging in Stock transactions, you must consult with the Legal Department prior to exercising this SAR Award. As soon as administratively practicable following the exercise of this SAR Award, the shares of Stock exercised under this SAR Award (net of any applicable tax) will be deposited in a brokerage account established in your name at UBS.

Termination of Employment. Except as provided below, any unvested portion of this SAR Award will be forfeited upon your termination of employment.

Due to Death, Disability or Retirement After Age 62. If your employment with the Company or an Affiliate terminates due to death, Disability, or Retirement after attaining age 62 with at least five years of service with the Company, the unvested portion of this SAR Award shall become fully vested on the date of such termination.

Due to Retirement Prior to Age 62. If your employment with the Company or an Affiliate terminates due to a Company-approved Retirement prior to age 62 with at least five years of service with the Company, subject to such restrictions as the Company may impose (including, but not limited to, a six-month post-employment non-competition agreement), the unvested portion of this SAR Award shall become fully vested six months following the effective date of such Retirement, provided that you do not violate the provisions of any restrictive covenants to which you are subject (including those set forth in any post-employment non-competition agreement between you and the Company), in which case, the unvested portion of this SAR Award will be canceled on the date the Company determines that you violated any such provisions.

Due to a Change in Control. Upon the termination of your employment by the Company without Cause or by you for Good Reason during the two-year period following a Change in Control of the Company, the unvested portion of this SAR Award shall become fully vested as of the date of your termination.
