On January 1 of the year following one year of participation, your contribution rate will be automatically increased to 4% . The following January 1, your contribution rate will be automatically increased to 5% (this is the contribution rate limit so there will be no further automatic increases) .

• Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP)—Schlumberger makes contributions to your DPSP account each year, based on the Company’s profitability .

• Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP)—Voluntary, non-matched account . There are no Company contributions .

deduction


You’ll be able to enrol in your Company-sponsored plans (DCPP and DPSP) approximately six weeks before you’re eligible . This gives you the chance to make your investment selections ahead of time, and get ready for your first payroll contributions .

If you don’t enrol in the DCPP and DPSP ahead of your eligibility date, you’ll be automatically enrolled once you become eligible .

Unless you specifically request not to make contributions, you will be set up for deductions of 3% of your admissible compensation for the DCPP . On January 1 of the year following one year of participation, your contribution rate will be automatically increased to 4% . The following January 1, your contribution rate will be automatically increased to 5% (this is the contribution rate limit so there will be no further automatic increases) .

SECTION 1: CONTINUED

BETH One lesson my parents taught me was to split my income into three savings “buckets .” The first bucket of savings is to help me meet my day-to-day expenses, the second bucket is to provide funding for medium-term goals (like buying a car, or taking a special trip), and the third bucket is for long-term investing . It’s been tempting to skip one or the other from time to time, especially when it comes to saving for something so far out in the future, but I’m really glad I’ve had the discipline to stick to my plan . Starting early is really going to pay off for me .

Here’s an example of what I am aiming for:

• If I invest $100 a month starting at age 25, until I reach age 60, I will save $135,172 .43*

• If I wait until age 40, and start investing $200 a month until I reach age 60, I will save $90,149 .46* * assuming a net rate of return of 5.75%

Makes a lot more sense to me to start as soon as I can—not only will I accumulate more money, but it will make it a lot easier for me when I get older!

MAKE THE PROGRAM WORK FOR YOU

There are 3 steps to making the most of your Schlumberger Retirement and Savings Program:

Step 1: Learn: Understand the plan components in your Program (DCPP, DPSP, RRSP, TFSA, NREG)

Step 2: Invest: Understand the types of investments available to you and your individual approach to risk and return

Step 3: Act: If you’ve decided on a contribution rate and chosen your investments, you’re well on your way . See page 2 at the front of this brochure for instructions on how to enrol . But enroling doesn’t mean you’re done . In fact, managing your retirement savings is an ongoing job . Make a plan to regularly check your account .


ABOUT YOUR SCHLUMBERGER RETIREMENT AND SAVINGS PROGRAM

The Defined Contribution Pension Plan

The DCPP forms the foundation of your retirement savings . Both you and Schlumberger contribute to the plan:

• Schlumberger contributes 2% of your admissible compensation;

• You may contribute up to 5% of your admissible compensation; and

• Schlumberger will match your contributions—dollar for dollar—to a maximum of 3% of your admissible compensation .

What this means is that with your 5% contribution plus Schlumberger’s basic and matching contribution, you could be saving up to 10% of your pay in your DCPP, up to the limits set by the Canada Revenue Agency . What’s more, you’ll be deferring tax on your contributions—and any investment gains—until you receive it as retirement income . In addition to Company contributions, Schlumberger also pays all expenses related to your account .

You choose how your contributions and Schlumberger’s contributions are invested . You can learn more about your investment options in the INVEST section of this booklet, starting on page 10 .

The Deferred Profit Sharing Plan

Schlumberger’s DPSP allows you to share in the Company’s success and increase your retirement savings, all on a tax-deferred basis .

Based on the profitability of the Company, Schlumberger will make an annual discretionary profit sharing contribution to your Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP) account . The profit sharing contribution is a percentage of your admissible compensation . You control the investment of Schlumberger’s DPSP contributions–visit mysunlife.ca/Schlumberger to learn more about your investment options and making the right selection . Like the DCPP, Schlumberger pays all expenses related to your DPSP account .

Registered Retirement Savings Plan

An RRSP is a plan to which you can make voluntary contributions and which helps you save for retirement . All contributions made to your RRSP are tax-deductible and all investment earnings are tax-sheltered .

What’s admissible compensation?Admissible compensation includes base pay, overtime, bonuses, commissions and geographical coefficients .

SECTION 2: LEARN


Tax-free Savings Account

A TFSA is an account funded with after-tax dollars, providing the benefit of tax-free investment gains .

Non-registered Account

An NREG account is funded with after-tax dollars . You will only have an NREG account if your DCPP and DPSP contributions exceed the annual Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) limits .

SUZANNE Through payroll deduction, I realize immediate tax savings by making additional contributions to the pension plan . Instead of waiting for my tax return, I have the ability to make my contributions through payroll deductions and they are made pre-tax, which means more bang for my buck .

Through payroll deduction, I can make a $500 registered contribution every month, but it only costs me $300!

The other advantage of making purchases over a regular period of time rather than in one lump sum is that I average the cost of my investments rather than running the risk of buying in bulk when the price is at its highest . This is called dollar-cost averaging and, over time, proves to be the best way of smoothing out costs .

No payroll deduction Payroll deduction

Gross salary $6,000 $6,000

Voluntary pension contribution None $500

Taxable income $6,000 $5,500

Tax (assuming 40% tax rate) -2,400 -2,200

After-tax pay $3,600 $3,300

You’ll need a beneficiary… just in case You need to name a beneficiary for each plan (DCPP, DPSP, RRSP, TFSA) to receive benefits in the event of your death . You may change or alter your beneficiary designation at any time through Sun Life Financial, the plan’s record keeper, online at mysunlife.ca/Schlumberger . Sign in, select my financial centre>Quick Links>Beneficiary info, or by phone .

For your DCPP, your beneficiary will automatically be your spouse, regardless of any other beneficiary you have named, unless your spouse signs a waiver . If you do not have a spouse or another beneficiary when you die, benefits will be paid to your estate .

SECTION 3: INVEST

Now that you know how the Schlumberger Retirement and Savings Program works, it’s time to think about making some decisions . While saving your money is the first step, investing your savings is important to make your money grow . Invested money can earn interest and dividend income, and can generate capital growth, like the growth in the value of a home . These earnings are needed to keep your savings a step ahead of inflation and to ensure you have enough money for your future . Here are your three key steps:

• Set your financial goals

• Decide on your contribution rate

• Choose your investment approach

SET YOUR FINANCIAL GOALS

Think carefully about what you really want to do when you retire . Set a target . Think about your retirement lifestyle .

Do you plan to stay close to home and spend time with family? Or are you planning to do a lot of travelling? What about hobbies or leisure activities?

We’ve used examples to illustrate

important concepts . These illustrations

are based on historical information

and are not intended to predict future

results . The assumed rates of return do

not represent the performance of any

particular investment . Investment returns

will fluctuate over time . The information

in this booklet is for educational

purposes only and should not be

interpreted as investment advice .

The amount of retirement income you’ll need relates directly to the lifestyle you envision . To give you a starting point, many experts suggest that the average Canadian will need between 60% and 80% of pre-retirement income to maintain his or her current standard of living into retirement .

But knowing exactly how much you’ll need is harder to figure out . Many things come into play:

• Will you have paid off your mortgage or downsized to a smaller home?

• What about your medical costs? Do you expect them to increase?

• Will you still be paying for children’s education?

Your Schlumberger Retirement and Savings Program is designed specifically to help you save for these costs in retirement . But this will likely not be your only source of retirement income . Government programs and personal savings are also important components of your retirement plan, and don’t forget about any pension benefits earned with previous employers .

DECIDE ON YOUR CONTRIBUTION RATE

The Schlumberger Retirement and Savings Program makes it easy to save . You can save as little as 3% of your admissible compensation to receive the maximum Schlumberger contributions—but why not save 2% more and maximize your savings? You’ll defer tax and you’ll be putting aside 10% of your income towards your retirement, but, with the tax savings, you’ll be contributing less than half of that amount .

How long till you retire?

Knowing your time horizon will help you set a strategy for meeting your financial goals . How far away from retirement are you? For example, let’s say you’re retiring in five years . Your investment strategy will be quite different from someone who has 30 years before retirement . Keeping your investment time horizon in mind will be important when it comes to thinking about your investment options . It’s worth completing the Retirement planner tool on mysunlife.ca/Schlumberger .


We want you to maximize your retirement incomeThat’s why Schlumberger sets a default employee contribution rate of 3% of your admissible compensation for those who don’t actively enrol in the plan . A 3% employee contribution means that you automatically receive the maximum 5% from Schlumberger . Your contribution rate

will automatically increase on January 1 each year following one year of participation . See page 3 of this guide for more details .



CHOOSE YOUR INVESTMENT APPROACH

The Schlumberger plan offers a variety of investments to choose from, with two distinct investment approaches: Built FOR Me and Built BY Me .

Look for more information on target date funds on the Schlumberger mobile companion at sunlife.ca/welcometoschlumberger or online at mysunlife.ca/Schlumberger>my financial future>Quick Links>Investment performance . On the right hand side of the screen select my fund performance>Morningstar® .

BUILT FOR METhe Built FOR Me approach is made up of target date funds structured to coincide with a key life event such as retirement . Target date funds have asset mixes that adjust automatically as you get closer to your target date (the date when you expect to need your money) . All you have to do is select the date when you will need your money; for example, your planned retirement year or the year you reach age 65, and then choose the target date fund closest to, but not exceeding, this date .

Example: If you are aged 36 in 2015, you would select a target date fund with a maturity date closest to but not exceeding 2044, i .e . the year you turn 65 . This would be the Granite™2040 fund .

Target date funds available in your plan

Bill is in his mid-twenties; he’s busy starting his career, planning a wedding, and buying a house . Between upgrading his skills and managing his personal life, he doesn’t have much time to think about investing . Bill just wants to put some money away for his future but he doesn’t want to spend too much time managing a portfolio . Since Bill plans on retiring when he’s 65, he chooses the 2045 target date fund .

Beth is a single parent who just started a new job, Beth, 42, is busy balancing work with the demands of her family . With so much on her plate, she wants to save as much as she can and not think about it . Beth hopes to retire at 65 (even though she may have to work longer), so she selects the 2035 target date fund .

Carol is so close to retirement that she is actively planning her future . At 55, she has 10 or less years of work left . She wants to make sure she has a diversified portfolio that’s moving to a more conservative asset mix as she approaches retirement . To achieve this investment objective, she invests her money in the 2020 target date fund .

If you would like to build your own portfolio, you should know that there are different types of risk that can impact your investments . Before you use the Built BY Me approach, you should understand the different types of risk and how to manage risk . All investments carry some level of risk—as well as the potential for reward . The table below describes some different types of risk .

Your risk comfort level

You can get an idea of your risk comfort level by completing the Asset allocation tool (also known as the Investment Risk Profiler) on mysunlife.ca/Schlumberger . A paper version is included here . Once you’ve understood the different types of risk, you need to know how to manage risk .

TYPES OF RISK

This is the likelihood that the value of your investment will go up—or down—over time . Market risk is really the volatility of the investment . Typically, volatility is higher in the short term but decreases over time . Equities are most often associated with market risk because of the ups and downs in the stock market; however, bonds can also be volatile since their values fluctuate with interest rate changes .

This is the likelihood that the value of your investment will not keep pace with inflation over the long term . Inflation risk is low in the short term but increases over time . Fixed-income investments typically have a higher level of inflation risk .

Market risk Inflation risk

DID YOU

KNOW?

The investments in your Schlumberger Program are held

in segregated funds . Your workplace savings are held in

a separate account and are “segregated” from Sun Life

Financial’s other assets . The value of your segregated fund

assets and their rates of return are not guaranteed .

How to manage risk

There are two key investment strategies to help you reduce your exposure to risk, especially market risk: diversifying your investments (not putting all your eggs in one basket) and dollar-cost averaging (putting your eggs in the basket one at a time rather than all at once) .

• Diversification

This is simply spreading your savings among several different types of investments . By doing so, you’ll have a better chance of avoiding the steep ups and downs in any one type of investment . Instead, if some investments drop in value, others could gain or hold their value to offset the decrease .

There are two ways to take advantage of diversification in the Schlumberger program:

o you can choose your own diversified investment mix (this is known as the Built BY Me approach); or

o you can choose the default fund, which uses a diversified investment approach to manage risk (this is known as the Built FOR Me approach . Your Schlumberger default fund is a target date fund— the Sun Life Financial Granite™ Target Date Segregated Fund closest to, but not exceeding, your 65th birthday .

• Dollar-cost averaging

The idea behind dollar-cost averaging is to invest the same each month—which you do automatically with the Schlumberger DCPP . By doing so, more fund units are purchased when prices are low and fewer units are purchased when prices are high . The point of this is to lower the total average cost per unit of the investment . This allows you to take advantage of changes in the price of the units you’re buying and selling . Assuming you invest an equal amount each time, it has been observed that over the long term:

o you’ll likely buy more units at lower prices; and

o you’ll likely buy fewer units at higher prices .

To take advantage of these strategies, you need to understand the risk levels in the different types of investments in your Program .

Savings Program, use my investment

more about your investments .


Risk levels in different types of investments

Bond (fixed income) funds:

These invest in bonds issued by governments and corporations . They are generally riskier when interest rates change . Bond fund values go down as interest rates go up, and vice versa .

Equity funds:

These invest mainly in stocks . When you buy a stock, you are buying an equity ownership share in a company . Equities tend to be more volatile than other types of investment funds, but have historically provided the best returns over long periods . Equity funds will often specialize in different parts of the world, different geographic areas or different economic sectors, or use a particular investment strategy, all of which affect their risk level .

Now that you know a little more about risk and return, you are ready to look at the Built BY Me approach to investing .

SECTION 5: WHAT HAPPENS . . .


It’s important to understand what happens when things change in your life . The situations below are common situations that will impact your account balances . This section tells you what happens… .

…when you retire


You are entitled to the full balance of your DCPP and, if you are vested, your DPSP account . You must be a member of the DPSP for at least two years before you are entitled to the balance in your account .

When you retire, you may choose to use the value of your entire DCPP account to purchase a life annuity . A life annuity provides you with an income . You will pay tax on the income as it’s received . The income amount is based on the amount used to purchase the annuity, your age, interest rates at the time of purchase and how long the income is to be paid .

Note that annuity rates at the time you retire have a significant effect on the income from your annuity . If interest rates are low at the time you retire, your annuity value will be low too . If they are high, your annuity value will be high .

Depending on your province of employment, you may instead transfer the balances of your accounts to:

• A Locked-In Retirement Account (LIRA)—Your account balance can continue to earn tax-deferred investment income until you are ready to start receiving a retirement income .

• A Locked-in Retirement Income Fund (LRIF)—You can receive an income while earning tax-deferred investment income within the fund .

• A Life Income Fund (LIF)—This works the same way as a LRIF; however, once you reach age 90, you must use the remaining balance to purchase a life annuity .

• Any other plan permitted by applicable legislation—Depending on your province, there may be other plans available to you .


You have similar retirement income options for your DPSP account; however, the balance does not have to be directed to a locked-in investment . For example, you can:

• Receive a lump sum cash payment; however, it will be taxed as income .

• Use it to purchase an annuity from an insurance company—you will pay tax on the income as it’s received .

• Transfer an amount to an RRSP . Canada Revenue Agency gives you 90 days from your last day at Schlumberger to transfer the amount . If you don’t, you will receive the balance of your account in cash and it will be taxed .

• Any combination of the above .


Your RRSP must be converted to a retirement income vehicle by the end


of the year in which you reach age 71 .


There is no withdrawal requirement based on age— there is no need to convert it to another type of account at any age .


There is no withdrawal requirement based on age— there is no need to convert it to another type of account at any age .

…if you are disabled

If you are disabled and receiving Schlumberger Short-term Disability benefits, you will continue to be a member of the DCPP and Schlumberger will continue to make contributions to the plan on your behalf . As your pay remains in place while receiving Short-Term Disability benefits, your employee and Company matching contributions remain as well .

When the DPSP award is made for the year, it will be based on all admissible compensation, including your admissible compensation earned while you are on STD salary continuance benefits .

If you continue on to receive Long-Term Disability benefits, all contributions to the DCPP and the DPSP will be suspended until your return to work .

…if you leave Schlumberger

If you leave Schlumberger, you may take the balance in your DCPP and transfer it to:

• A Locked-In Retirement Account (LIRA)—Your account balance can continue to earn tax-deferred investment income until you are ready to start receiving a retirement income .

• A Locked-in Retirement Income Fund (LRIF)—You can receive an income while earning tax-deferred investment income within the fund .

• A Life Income Fund (LIF)—This works the same way as a LRIF; however, once you reach age 90, you must use the remaining balance to purchase a life annuity .

• Any other plan permitted by applicable legislation—Depending on your province, there may be other plans available to you .


What is vesting?

Vesting refers to your ownership

of employer contributions in your

plan account .

SECTION 5: WHAT HAPPENS . . .


You have similar options for your DPSP Account; however, the balance does not have to be directed to a locked-in investment . For example, you can:

• Receive a lump sum cash payment; however, it will be taxed as income .


• Transfer an amount to an RRSP but you must transfer the amount within 90 days of your last day at Schlumberger . If you don’t, you will receive the balance of your account in cash and it will be taxed .

• Any combination of the above .

You can also elect to receive a lump sum cash payment of your DPSP account (taxed as income) .

Note that you must make a decision about the disposition of your DPSP account within 90 days of your last day of employment at Schlumberger . If Sun Life Financial does not receive your payment option within this period, you will automatically receive a lump sum cash payment of your DPSP balance . There is no similar deadline for selecting a settlement option under the DCPP .

…if your marriage breaks down

If your marriage ends, a court order or separation agreement may require that your benefits be shared with your ex-spouse . For assistance and information regarding your assets in the event of a marriage breakdown, please contact the Sun Life Financial Customer Care Centre at 1-866-733-8612 .

….if you die prior to retirement

If you die before your DCPP has been transferred to a LIRA or annuity account, your spouse* or beneficiary will receive the total value of your account .

If your spouse is your beneficiary, your spouse may choose to receive the death benefit as:

• A transfer to their registered pension plan, if permitted by that plan .

• A transfer to a life insurance company to purchase an immediate or deferred life annuity .

• A transfer to a Locked-In Retirement Account (LIRA) or RRSP .

• A lump sum cash payment (less applicable withholding taxes) .

If you do not have a spouse on your date of death, the death benefit will be paid as a lump sum cash payment to your beneficiary .

Prince Edward Island Please consult Plan Text

Quebec Spouse, in relation to a member, means the person who,(1) is married to or in a civil union* with the member, or(2) has been living in a conjugal relationship with a member who is neither married nor in a civil union, whether the person is of the opposite or the same sex, for a period of not less than three years, or for a period of not less than one year if - at least one child is born, or to be born, of their union, - they have adopted, jointly, at least one child while living together in a conjugal relationship, or - one of them has adopted at least one child who is the child of the other, while living together in a conjugal relationship.* a civil union is created when couples of the opposite or the same sex wish to make a public commitment to live together as a couple and to uphold the rights and obligations stemming from such status. A civil union:1. must be contracted openly before an official competent to solemnize marriages and in the presence of two witnesses;2. includes persons of either the opposite or same sex, 18 years of age or over;3. creates the same rights and obligations as a marriage.

• for deaths occurring on or after January 1, 2001, if a person is legally separated from bed and board they will lose their rights as a spouse to entitlement to a pre-retirement or post-retirement death benefit, even if the judgment of separation was rendered before September 1, 1990• effective January 1, 2001, the birth or adoption of a child during a marriage, civil union or during a period of conjugal relationship prior to the current period of conjugal relationship may allow a person to be recognized as a spouse• if there is a judgment of separation, divorce, dissolution or annulment of marriage or civil union, or cessation of conjugal relationship, the spousal rights in respect of pre-retirement and post-retirement death benefits are terminated. • if the member wishes to provide pension benefits to his former spouse, the member must appoint his ex-spouse as beneficiary, or advise the plan administrator in writing that pension payments are to continue to the ex-spouse, as the case may be. An existing beneficiary designation in favour of the spouse lapses upon judgment of divorce or annulment of marriage, or dissolution or annulment of civil union; therefore, if it is the member’s intention that the former spouse continue to be his beneficiary, then the member must designate that person again after the date of the divorce/annulment/dissolution. • in the event of judgment of separation (applicable only to married spouses) or cessation of a conjugal relationship, the beneficiary designation does not lapse; therefore, if the separated or former common-law spouse was named as the last designated beneficiary, that designation would be valid despite a judgment of separation or cessation of conjugal relationship. Note: A new spouse who meets the necessary conditions to qualify as Spouse at the date of death will have precedence over a former spouse who was designated as beneficiary.

Saskatchewan Spouse, where used to refer to the spouse of a member or former member, means, at any date, a person(i) who is married to the member or former member or, if there is no such person,(ii) with whom the member or former member is cohabiting as spouses at the relevant time and who has been cohabiting continuously for at least one year prior to the relevant time.

- on retirement and pre-retirement death, a married member is considered to have a spouse until such time as a divorce occurs, even if the couple are living separate and apart at time of pension commencement or death. A married spouse takes precedence over a common law spouse even where a married couple is no longer living together.

Complete the appropriate section to designate a beneficiary for your account.

If you have a spouse when you die, the law may stipulate that all or part of the death benefit be paid to your surviving spouse, unless where provided, the spouse waives the death benefit. A beneficiary designation other than your spouse would only apply to those death benefits which are not, according to the law, payable to your surviving spouse. If you wish to ensure that your spouse receives all benefits even if he or she is no longer your spouse, please designate your spouse here. In the absence of a beneficiary designation, and if not payable to your spouse as prescribed by law, death benefits will be paid to your estate. It is therefore important for you to ensure that your estate plan is in order. To appoint a trustee for a beneficiary who is a minor, please complete the ‘Appointment of trustee for a minor beneficiary’ section. In Quebec, any amount payable to a minor beneficiary during his/her minority will be paid to the parent(s) or legal guardian on his/her behalf.

The following caution does not apply to residents of Quebec.

Caution: Your designation of a beneficiary by means of a designation form will not be changed or revoked automatically by any future marriage or divorce. Should you wish to change or revoke your beneficiary in the event of a future marriage or divorce, you have to do so by means of a new designation.

10 Your signature of authorization I require that all future communications, including this application and Group Plan documents, be provided

in English. If I terminate employment with my plan sponsor, I understand that I must provide Sun Life with transfer or

withdrawal instructions for my DPSP assets within 90 days of my termination. If I do not do so before the expiry of the 88th day from my termination, subject to any applicable legislation, I hereby authorize Sun Life to transfer my assets and benefits under the plan listed above to a group RRSP for terminated members. If this happens, the assets in my original plan will be transferred to the same funds under my new plan. If the same funds are not available under my new plan, assets will be transferred into a money market fund. I understand that fund management fees may vary from those under my original plan(s). I also understand that as my assets will be under a new plan, any death benefit will be paid to my estate, unless I designate a new beneficiary by completing a beneficiary designation form. If, however, under my original plan(s) my beneficiary designation was irrevocable, that beneficiary will become the beneficiary under my new plan.

I request Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada to file an election to register my arrangement as a Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any applicable provincial tax legislation. I appoint the plan sponsor named in this application to act as my agent for the purpose of submitting contributions, providing my investment, withdrawal and transfer instructions and any other instructions as may be required to administer my TFSA. I agree to be bound by the terms of the Plan and any amendments thereto.

I authorize Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada, its agents and service providers, to obtain, use and transmit to my plan sponsor, its agents and service providers, my personal information for the purpose of plan administration. I also authorize Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada, its agents and service providers to transmit my personal information to the advisor appointed by my plan sponsor, if any, or to my personal advisor for the purpose of enabling in-plan advisory services.

Unless I select ‘No’ below, I agree that my information may be collected, used and shared with the members of the Sun Life Financial group of companies*, their agents and service providers to inform me of other financial products and services that they believe meet my changing needs.

No, I refuse permission *The companies in the Sun Life Financial group of companies mean only those companies identified in Sun Life Financial’s Privacy Policy for Canada which is available on the Sun Life Financial website, www.sunlife.ca.
