(1) Does not include the Personal performance component, which represents the remaining 20% of the AIP.
(2) 2013 business units for the purpose of AIP are as follows: Oil Sands; In Situ; E&P; R&M; OSV; and Major Projects.
(3) The scoring opportunity for the Corporate and Business Unit component of AIP ranges from 0 to a maximum of 200, with a target score of 100.
(4) For 2013, CFOPS (previously defined herein as ‘‘cash flow from operations’’) of $11.0 billion and ROCE (previously defined herein as ‘‘return on capital
employed’’) of 14% would have had to have been achieved for a maximum score of 200% for the Corporate measures component; CFOPS of 
$6.6 billion and ROCE of 5% would result in no payout; and CFOPS and ROCE results between the minimum and maximum target levels would 
provide payouts on a sliding scale of between 0% and 200%.

(5) Suncor’s business unit guideline target weightings by Performance Area are as follows: 15% for each of P&PS, Environment and People; and 55% for 
Reliability. However, these target weightings may vary slightly for individual business units, in order to place increased emphasis on a particular 
performance area for that year. For example, in 2013, the R&M business unit assigned a 15% target weighting to each of Environment and People, 
20% to P&PS, and 50% to Reliability. For 2013, the overall company target weightings for the four Performance Areas within the Business Unit 
component of AIP in the foregoing table were as follows: 16% for P&PS; 15% for Environment; 54% for Reliability; and 15% for People.
(6) CFOPS, ROCE and Oil Sands cash operating costs are non-GAAP measures. See the ‘‘Advisories’’ beginning on page 74 of this management 
proxy circular. The AIP CFOPS of $9.5 billion and ROCE of 12.2% results reflect adjustments for the disposition of the majority of the company’s 
conventional natural gas business, the decision to not proceed with the Voyageur upgrader project and the impact on production in Libya due to 
political unrest.

(7) Certain measures may not be applicable to all business units. For example, Production is not a measure for the Major Projects business unit. In 
addition, certain business units may have additional unit specific measures. For example, the R&M business unit measures include specific reliability 
measures focusing on Retail, Wholesale, Distribution and Lubricants operations.
(8) The Performance Area scores for the Business Unit component of AIP reflect the aggregate scores achieved across all of the business units. 
Performance for individual business units will vary from the aggregate scores.
(9) CFOPS also acts as a threshold measure for determining if any payments will be made under the AIP. The AIP threshold CFOPS level below which AIP 
payments would be reduced to 50% was $6.6 billion for 2013. The AIP threshold CFOPS level below which no payment would be made under the AIP 
was $3.3 billion for 2013.
