SUMMARY OF INCENTIVE PLANS
Performance Share Unit Plan. PSUs form 50% of the equity component of target total direct compensation for
executives. A PSU award may pay out based on a vesting level between 0% and 200% of the number of PSUs initially
awarded contingent upon Suncor’s performance relative to a peer group of companies over a three-year period. PSUs
provide for notional dividend re-investment.
The peer group for a PSU award is chosen based on size and business scope criteria approved by the HR&CC. The peer
group for grants beginning in 2010 includes North American energy companies. The PSU peer group is reviewed, adjusted
as appropriate and approved by the HR&CC for each annual grant.
The peer groups and related information for the 2012 and 2013 PSU awards are displayed below.
