The Board believes that Mr Goyder is a highly capable and effective leader, and continues to provide valuable insight, stewardship and strength to the Board and its deliberations generally as a result of his extensive business career and board experience.

6 2024 NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

ITEM 3:

REMUNERATION REPORT

A resolution for adoption of the Remuneration Report is required to be considered and voted on in accordance with the Corporations Act.

The Remuneration Report details the Company's policy on the remuneration of non-executive directors, the CEO and other senior executives and is set out on pages 80-104 of the Annual Report 2023, which is available on the Company's website at www.woodside.com.

The vote on the adoption of the Remuneration Report resolution is advisory only and does not bind the directors or the Company. However, the Board will take the outcome of the vote into consideration when reviewing the remuneration practices and policies of the Company.

Shareholders as a whole will be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions and to make comments on the Remuneration Report.

The Board recommends that shareholders vote in favour of adopting the 2023 Remuneration Report.

ITEM 4:

APPROVAL OF GRANT OF EXECUTIVE INCENTIVE SCHEME AWARDS TO CEO & MANAGING DIRECTOR

The Company is seeking shareholder approval for the proposed grants of Restricted Shares and Performance Rights to the CEO & Managing Director, Ms Meg O'Neill, under the Woodside Executive Incentive Scheme (EIS). The EIS remunerates executives (including the CEO) for delivering results against measurable criteria linked to safe, efficient operations, achievement of material sustainability objectives, delivery of new projects and an effective financial structure. The EIS delivers an award to executives which is linked to annual individual

and corporate performance, and is designed to be simple and transparent.

The Restricted Shares and Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Ms O'Neill under Item 4 form part of her remuneration for 2023.

Why is shareholder approval being sought?

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 requires that shareholder approval be obtained for the acquisition of securities by a director under an employee incentive scheme. Ms O'Neill is covered by ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1 because she is the Managing Director of the Company.

Shareholder approval is only required under ASX Listing Rule

10.14 if new shares may be issued to a director and not if shares are required to be purchased on-market. The Company's usual practice is to purchase shares on-market for the purposes of allocating Restricted Shares and to satisfy the vesting of any Performance Rights that vest. However, shareholder approval is sought in the interests of transparency and good governance, and to preserve the flexibility for the Board to determine whether shares allocated to Ms O'Neill under the EIS will be purchased on-market or issued.

Structure of CEO's remuneration at Woodside

The structure of CEO remuneration is a combination of:

  • Fixed annual reward (FAR), and
  • Variable annual reward (VAR), which is delivered under the EIS.

The CEO's VAR is based on performance against Woodside's Corporate Scorecard and her individual key performance indicators (KPIs) for the performance year and the Board has a discretion to make adjustments that it considers appropriate.

For 2023, the Board determined to award Ms O'Neill a VAR of A$6,653,000, which represents 66% of maximum EIS opportunity. Details of the Corporate Scorecard outcomes, KPIs that applied to Ms O'Neill's VAR for 2023 and the performance achieved against these KPIs, are detailed in the Remuneration Report. The CEO's individual performance is shown in Table 4 set out on page 92 of the Remuneration Report.

Following the Board's performance assessment, the VAR outcome is determined and the award is delivered in different components, as set out in the following table:

CEO EIS structure

  1. Allocated using a face value methodology.
  2. Award allocated after completion of performance year.

Approval is being sought under Item 4 for the grant of the Performance Rights and Restricted Shares components of Ms O'Neill's VAR for 2023.

The structure of the EIS awards has been designed to deliver three key objectives: executive engagement, alignment with the shareholder experience and strategic fit. The VAR aligns shareholder and executive remuneration outcomes by ensuring a significant portion of CEO remuneration is at risk, while rewarding performance across short, medium and longer-term horizons. Scorecard KPIs reflect both operational performance and Woodside's performance against material sustainability criteria (including environmental performance, climate metrics such as emissions targets and social licence to operate).

WOODSIDE ENERGY GROUP LTD

7

In 2023, in recognition of the importance of climate to our business, the Board determined that climate metrics will be a distinct component of Executive Remuneration impacting Variable Annual Reward from 2024. Climate metrics will make up 15% of the total scorecard, with 70% based on gross Scope 1 and 2 emissions performance (calculated prior to retirement of carbon credits as offsets) and 30% based on new energy project progress. Individual KPIs may also be added to Executive Performance Agreements in accordance with the roles and responsibilities of the Business Group.

Ms O'Neill's total remuneration package for 2023 is set out below:

FAR (inclusive

A$2,400,000

of superannuation)

VAR

Target opportunity is 280% of FAR.

The CEO can receive up to a maximum

of 420% of FAR, subject to performance.

Restricted Shares proposed to be granted to Ms O'Neill

As shown above, fifty percent (50%) of Ms O'Neill's VAR for the period 1 January 2023 to 31 December 2023 (equalling A$3,326,500) is proposed to be delivered in the form of Restricted Shares, subject to either a three, four or five-year deferral period. The deferral period for each tranche commences from the allocation date following the Annual General Meeting. A service condition applies during the deferral period and there are no further performance conditions attached to these awards.

It is proposed that Ms O'Neill will receive 109,617 Restricted Shares (calculated using the methodology set out on page 9 of these explanatory notes). Each Restricted Share is a fully paid ordinary share in Woodside that is subject to a service condition during the deferral period. As the Restricted Shares are part of Ms O'Neill's remuneration, no amount is payable on the grant or vesting of a Restricted Share.

This element creates a strong retention proposition for the CEO as vesting is subject to employment not being terminated with cause or by resignation during the deferral period. The deferral ensures that awards remain subject to fluctuations in share price across the three, four and five-year periods, which is intended to reflect the sustainability of performance over the medium-term and long-term and to support increased alignment between executives and shareholders.

The Company has decided to grant Ms O'Neill Restricted Shares for the deferred component of the VAR because they align her interests with the interests of shareholders by creating an ownership interest in shares, and provide her with an opportunity to receive dividends.

Performance Rights proposed to be granted to Ms O'Neill

Thirty percent (30%) of Ms O'Neill's VAR will be delivered in the form of Performance Rights (equalling A$1,995,900). It is proposed that Ms O'Neill will be granted 65,771 Performance Rights (calculated using the methodology set out on page 9 of these explanatory notes) as the long-term component of her VAR.

Each Performance Right provides Ms O'Neill with the opportunity to receive a fully paid ordinary share in Woodside, provided certain vesting conditions are met. As the Performance Rights are part of Ms O'Neill's remuneration, no amount is payable on the grant of Performance Rights or on allocation of shares if Performance Rights vest. The Board retains discretion to make a cash equivalent payment in lieu of an allocation of shares.

The Company has decided to grant Ms O'Neill Performance Rights because they create share price alignment between Ms O'Neill and shareholders but do not provide the full benefits of share ownership (such as dividend and voting rights) unless the Performance Rights vest.

Vesting conditions applying to the Performance Rights

The Performance Rights will have a performance period, commencing from the allocation date following the Annual General Meeting. The Performance Rights are divided into two components as follows:

  • One third of the Performance Rights are subject to a relative total shareholder return (RTSR) performance condition, which will be tested against the total shareholder return (TSR) over the performance period of companies that comprised the ASX50 as at 1 December 2023, and
  • The remaining two-thirds of the Performance Rights are subject to an RTSR performance condition, which will be tested against the TSR over the performance period of the following group of international oil and gas companies.

8 2024 NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

The Board has discretion to vary the peer group or make other adjustments to the performance condition that it considers appropriate provided participants are not materially prejudiced or advantaged, including to:

  • take into account events that occur prior to vesting (for example, takeovers, mergers or de-mergers); or
  • include or exclude items that the Board considers appropriate, including to better reflect shareholder expectations or management performance.

Performance is tested after five years as the Company operates in a capital-intensive industry with long investment timelines.

Each component is separately tested. The percentage of Performance Rights in each component that vest will depend on the following vesting schedule:

Woodside RTSR percentile

Vesting of Performance Rights

position within peer group

in the relevant RTSR component

Less than 50th percentile

No vesting

Equal to 50th percentile

50% vest

Between the 50th and 75th

Vesting on a pro-rata basis

percentile

Equal to or greater than 75th

100% vest

percentile

It is imperative that executives take decisions in the long-term interest of shareholders, focused on value creation across the commodity price cycles of the oil and gas industry. The Board's view is that RTSR is the best measure of long-term value creation across the commodity price cycle of our industry.

RTSR performance hurdle vesting

RTSR outcomes are calculated by an external adviser following the end of the performance period. Any Performance Rights that do not vest will lapse and are not retested.

The decision to vest the Performance Rights is subject to the overriding discretion of the Board, which may adjust outcomes if appropriate, including to better reflect shareholder expectations or management performance.

Other terms of the Restricted Shares and Performance Rights

The following table summarises the key terms that apply to the components of VAR delivered as equity to Ms O'Neill:

Key EIS features

Allocation methodology

Restricted Shares and Performance Rights are allocated using a face value allocation methodology. The number of

Restricted Shares and Performance Rights has been calculated by dividing the value of the respective components by the

volume weighted average price (VWAP) of the Company's shares traded on each trading day in December 2023 (being

approximately A$30.35).

Dividends and voting rights

Ms O'Neill is entitled to receive dividends on Restricted Shares and exercise voting rights.

No dividends are paid on Performance Rights prior to vesting. For Performance Rights that do vest, a dividend equivalent

payment will be paid by the Company for the period between allocation and vesting. The dividend equivalent payment

will be paid in cash unless the Board determines otherwise. Ms O'Neill does not have any voting rights in relation to

Performance Rights.

Clawback provisions

The Board has the discretion to reduce or claw back EIS equity awards or entitlements received under the Company's

Equity Award Rules including where an executive has acted fraudulently or dishonestly or is found to be in material breach

of their obligations, they have engaged in an act which has brought a Group company into disrepute or may negatively

impact any Group company's reputation in a material way, vesting is not justified or supportable, there is a material

misstatement or omission in the financial statements or the Board determines that circumstances have occurred that have

resulted in an unfair benefit to the executive.

Control event

The Board has the discretion to determine the treatment of Restricted Shares and Performance Rights on a change of

control event.

If an actual change of control occurs during the vesting period for equity awards, unless the Board determines otherwise

Restricted Shares will vest in full whilst Performance Rights will vest on a pro-rata basis having regard to the portion of the

vesting period elapsed.

Cessation of employment

If Ms O'Neill resigns or her employment is terminated for cause, all Performance Rights will lapse and Restricted Shares will

be forfeited (unless the Board determines otherwise).

If Ms O'Neill ceases employment for any other reason and unless the Board determines otherwise:

• All Performance Rights will remain on foot and will remain subject to the original terms; and

• Restricted Shares will vest in full from a date determined by the Board.

Adjustments to

The Board may grant additional Performance Rights or make adjustments it considers appropriate to the terms of a

Performance Rights

Performance Right if there is a corporate action by, or capital reconstruction in relation to, the Company, including any

return of capital.

No retesting

There will be no retest applied to the award. Performance Rights will lapse if the required RTSR performance is not

achieved at the conclusion of the five-year period.
