Pursuant to this Award Agreement and the Marathon Petroleum Corporation Second Amended and Restated 2011 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), MARATHON PETROLEUM CORPORATION (the “Corporation”) hereby grants to [NAME] (the “Participant”), an employee of the Corporation or a Subsidiary, on [DATE] (the “Grant Date”), [NUMBER] restricted shares of Common Stock (“Restricted Shares”). The number of Restricted Shares awarded is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 14 of the Plan, and the Restricted Shares are subject to the following terms and conditions:
1. Relationship to the Plan.
This grant of Restricted Shares is subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan and administrative interpretations, if any, that have been adopted by the Committee. Except as defined in this Award Agreement (including in Paragraph 10 hereof), capitalized terms shall have the same meanings given to them under the Plan. To the extent that any provision of this Award Agreement conflicts with the express terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control and, if necessary, the applicable provisions of this Award Agreement shall be hereby deemed amended so as to carry out the purpose and intent of the Plan.
2. Vesting and Forfeiture of Restricted Shares.
(a) The Restricted Units shall vest in three cumulative annual installments, as follows:
(i) one-third of the Restricted Units shall vest on the first anniversary of the Grant Date;
(ii) an additional one-third of the Restricted Units shall vest on the second anniversary of the Grant Date; and
(iii) all remaining Restricted Units shall vest on the third anniversary of the Grant Date;
provided, however, that the Participant must be in continuous Employment from the Grant Date through the vesting date in order for the Restricted Shares to vest. If the Employment of the Participant is terminated for any reason (including non-Mandatory Retirement) other than death or Mandatory Retirement, any Restricted Shares that have not vested as of the date of such termination of Employment shall be forfeited to the Corporation.
(b) The Restricted Shares shall immediately vest in full, irrespective of the limitations set forth in subparagraph (a) above, upon:
(i) termination of the Participant’s Employment due to death;
(ii) termination of the Participant’s Employment due to Mandatory Retirement; or

3. Issuance of Shares. Effective as of the Grant Date, the Committee or its designated representative shall cause a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of Restricted Shares to be issued and registered in the Participant’s name, subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Award Agreement and the Plan. Such issuance and registration shall be evidenced by an entry on the registry books of the Corporation. Any book entries evidencing the Restricted Shares shall carry or be endorsed with a legend referring to the conditions and restrictions set forth in this Award Agreement and the Plan. The Participant shall not be entitled to release of the restrictions on the book entry evidencing such Restricted Shares for any portion of the Restricted Shares unless and until the related Restricted Shares have vested pursuant to Paragraph 2. In the event the Restricted Shares are forfeited in full or in part, the Participant hereby consents to the relinquishment of the forfeited Restricted Shares theretofore issued and registered in the Participant’s name to the Corporation at that time.
4. Forfeiture or Repayment Resulting from Forfeiture Event.
(a) If there is a Forfeiture Event either while the Participant is employed or within two years after termination of the Participant’s Employment, then the Committee may, but is not obligated to, cause all of the Participant’s unvested Restricted Shares to be forfeited by the Participant and returned to the Corporation.
(b) If there is a Forfeiture Event either while the Participant is employed or within two years after termination of the Participant’s Employment, then with respect to Restricted Shares granted under this Award Agreement that have vested, the Committee may, but is not obligated to, require that the Participant pay to the Corporation an amount (the “Forfeiture Amount”) up to (but not in excess of) the lesser of (i) the value of such previously vested Restricted Shares as of the date such shares vested or (ii) the value of such previously vested Restricted Shares as of the date on which the Committee makes a demand for payment of the Forfeiture Amount. Any Forfeiture Amount shall be paid by the Participant within sixty (60) days of receipt from the Corporation of written notice requiring payment of such Forfeiture Amount.
(c) This Paragraph 4 shall apply notwithstanding any provision of this Award Agreement to the contrary and is meant to provide the Corporation with rights in addition to any other remedy which may exist in law or in equity. This Paragraph 4 shall not apply to the Participant following the effective time of a Change in Control.
(d) Notwithstanding the any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Participant agrees that the Corporation may also require that the participant repay to the Corporation any compensation paid to the Participant under this Agreement, as is required by the provisions of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act and the regulations thereunder or any other “clawback” provisions as required by law or by the applicable listing standards of the exchange on which the Corporation’s common stock is listed for trading.
5. Taxes. Pursuant to Section 11 of the Plan, the Corporation or its designated representative shall have the right to withhold applicable taxes from the shares of Common Stock otherwise deliverable to the Participant due to the vesting of Restricted Shares pursuant to Paragraph 2, or from other compensation payable to the Participant, at the time of the vesting and delivery of such shares.
6. Shareholder Rights. Unless and until the Restricted Shares are forfeited, the Participant shall have the rights of a shareholder with respect to the Restricted Shares as of the Grant Date, including the right to vote the Restricted Shares and the right to receive dividends. The Participant hereby consents to receiving any dividends on the unvested Restricted Shares through the Corporation’s payroll and, accordingly, directs the
2
Corporation’s transfer agent to pay such dividends to the Corporation on his or her behalf.
7. Nonassignability. Upon the Participant’s death, the Restricted Shares shall be transferred to the Participant’s estate. Otherwise, the Participant may not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber any portion of the Restricted Shares, and any attempt to sell, transfer, assign, pledge, or encumber any portion of the Restricted Shares shall have no effect.
8. No Employment Guaranteed. Nothing in this Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights to (or impose any obligations for) continued Employment by the Corporation or any Subsidiary or successor, nor shall it give such entities any rights (or impose any obligations) with respect to continued performance of duties by the Participant.
9. Modification of Agreement. Any modification of this Award Agreement shall be binding only if evidenced in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Corporation, provided that no modification may, without the consent of the Participant, adversely affect the rights of the Participant.
10. Officer Holding Requirement. Participant agrees that any shares received by the Participant in settlement of this Award shall be subject an additional holding period of one year from the date on which the award is settled, during which holding period such shares (net of shares used to satisfy the applicable tax withholding requirements) may not be sold or transferred by the Participant. This holding requirement shall cease to apply upon the death of the Participant during the holding period.
