This Agreement is subject to the following terms and provisions:

1. The Company hereby grants to the employee named above (the “Grantee”) a Performance-Based Award of Units each equal in value to $100.

2. This Award is subject to the following vesting and restrictions:

(a) In the event that the Performance Measures are satisfied in accordance with the Plan as set forth in item 3 below, the size of the Award will be determined and the Grantee will be paid in the value of their units in cash, less appropriate withholdings, during the first quarter of the fiscal year immediately following the completion of the three year performance measurement period.

(b) In the event that the Grantee terminates employment anytime prior to the completion of the full three-year performance measurement period, except for reason of death, disability, or retirement as set forth below, the Grantee will forfeit all units pursuant to this Award.

(c) In the event of death, disability, or retirement, the Grantee will receive the pro-rata number of units earned for performance completed based upon the number of months worked pursuant to this Award up to the time of the death, disability, or retirement event. In the event that the Performance Measures are satisfied in accordance with the Plan and as set forth in item 3 below, the size of the Award will be determined and the Grantee will be paid their cash during the first quarter of the fiscal year immediately following the completion of the three year performance measurement period.

3. The Performance Measure for tranche 1 (year 1) (25%) of this Award is split evenly between Murphy USA’s absolute growth in earnings before interest, depreciation, taxes, and amortization (EBITDA) and Murphy USA’s return on average capital employed (ROACE) for tranche 1 (year 1). The amount of the award earned is detailed in the schedule below. Based upon the performance level attained in the performance metric, a resultant percentage of performance units can be earned and calculated for each grant.

ROACE	50%	9.0%	7.2%	12.6%

The Performance Measure for tranche 2 (year 2), tranche 3 (year 3) and tranche 4 (year 2 and 3) of this Award is Murphy USA’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) over three measurement periods compared to the TSR of the Company’s peer group.
