Phillips 66 Savings Plan
|
Note 1—Plan Description
The following description of the Phillips 66 Savings Plan (Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan document and summary plan description for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution, 401(k) profit sharing plan sponsored by Phillips 66 Company (the Company), a wholly owned subsidiary of Phillips 66.
The Plan consists of two components: Thrift Feature (Thrift) and Success Share. Vanguard Group, Inc. serves as record-keeper. Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (Vanguard) serves as trustee for the Plan. Northern Trust Company serves as trustee of the Plan's Stable Value Fund. Prior to July 1, 2019, State Street Bank and Trust Company served as trustee of the Plan's Stable Value Fund.
Investments in the Plan are participant directed. Plan assets are invested in a variety of investment funds; however, the Phillips 66 Leveraged Stock Fund, ConocoPhillips Stock Fund and ConocoPhillips Leveraged Stock Fund are closed to new investments. The ConocoPhillips Stock Fund and ConocoPhillips Leveraged Stock Fund were transferred into the Plan from the Company's predecessor at the Plan's inception on May 1, 2012. If any participant has not made investment elections, the contributions will be invested in the Vanguard Target Retirement Trust with a target date closest to the participant's 65th birthday.
The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
Eligibility
Generally, active employees of the Company and its subsidiaries on the direct U.S. dollar payroll are eligible to participate in the Plan.
Thrift Feature
Participants may contribute between 1% and 75% of pay, as defined in the Plan document (Pay), on a Roth 401(k) basis, a before-tax basis, an after-tax basis, or in any combination thereof. Participants are eligible to make catch-up contributions to the Plan beginning in the year they attain age 50. The Company matches one dollar for each dollar contributed by an active participant up to 6% of Pay. In 2020, the Company made matching contributions to the Thrift of $107 million.
The Plan has an automatic enrollment feature for new employees with the initial contribution rate set at 6% of Pay, contributed on a before-tax basis. Participants can change the contribution rate and type of contribution at any time and can also elect not to contribute to the Plan. A participant’s rate has an automatic annual increase election of 1% in March of each year following the year participation in the Plan begins until it reaches 10%. Participants may opt out of this auto-increase feature.
Success Share
Success Share provides a discretionary Company contribution of between 0% and 6% (with a 2% target) of Pay, based on the employee’s Pay for the immediately preceding 12-month period ending September 30, regardless of whether the participant contributes to the Plan. Success Share contributions are made on an annual basis and are invested in accordance with the employee’s investment elections. In 2020, Success Share was 2% of Pay, resulting in Company Success Share contributions of $35 million.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with his or her contributions, Company contributions and allocations of investment earnings, and is charged with an allocation of investment and administrative expenses. Investment earnings are allocated based on the participant’s share of net earnings or losses for his or her respective elected investment options. Administrative expenses in 2020 were $38 per member per year (paid quarterly). This fixed-fee arrangement is separated from investment fees to provide greater cost transparency. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that could be provided from the participant’s vested account.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in all amounts credited to their accounts in all funds.
Voting Rights
As a beneficial owner of Phillips 66 stock (Company Stock), Plan participants and beneficiaries are entitled to direct the trustee to vote the Company Stock attributable to their accounts. Company Stock means the stock held in the Phillips 66 Stock Fund and the Phillips 66 Leveraged Stock Fund accounts. Company Stock does not refer to shares of ConocoPhillips Stock Fund or ConocoPhillips Leveraged Stock Fund held by the Plan.
Diversification
Generally, participants may make unlimited exchanges out of any investment fund in any dollar amount, whole percentages, or shares of their account to another investment fund subject to the exchange rules in the Plan document. In addition, using selected investment percentages, a participant may request a reallocation of both the existing account and future contribution allocations or a rebalancing of the participant’s existing account.
Share Accounting Method for Leveraged Company Stock
Any shares purchased or sold for the Plan on any business day are valued at the Participant Transaction Price, as defined by the Plan, which is calculated using a weighted-average price of the Company Stock traded on that business day and any carryover impact as described in the Plan document.
Distributions
Total distributions from participant accounts can be made upon the occurrence of specified events, including the attainment of age 59½, death, disability, or termination of employment. Partial distributions, before the occurrence of a specified event, are permitted in cases of specified financial hardship.
Generally, distributions from participant accounts invested in the Company Stock Fund, Company Leveraged Stock Fund, ConocoPhillips Stock Fund and ConocoPhillips Leveraged Stock Fund can be made in cash, stock, or a combination of both. Distributions from all other funds in the Plan are made in cash. An election to make an eligible rollover distribution is also available. A terminated employee or a beneficiary who is the surviving spouse of a participant is eligible to elect a distribution based on a fixed-dollar amount or life-expectancy installment payments.
Effective January 1, 2020, the following changes apply to the Plan:
•The Plan was amended to include the revised safe harbor hardship withdrawal reasons:
Expenses and losses (including loss of income) incurred by the participant due to a disaster declared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), provided that the participant's principal residence or principal place of employment at the time of the disaster was located in the area designated by FEMA for individual assistance with respect to the disaster.
•Loans may be suspended for up to one year for a participant who is on a non-military leave of absence for which full pay is not received. If the loan is suspended, the original loan payoff date can be increased by the same amount of time that the participant is on non-military leave, provided that the suspension period cannot exceed one year, and the term of the loan cannot exceed 58 months from the loan issuance date for a general purpose loan; or 238 months from the loan issuance date for a home loan. Loan payments resume upon the earlier of the participant's return from leave or one year from the date of the loan suspension.
•Employees on an unpaid leave other than military leave or an employee receiving workers' compensation, state disability or short-term disability with insufficient pay to make loan repayment by payroll deductions can elect to make loan payments through electronic debit payments from a bank or other financial institution or submit a cashier's check, certified check or money order.
Effective March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, provisions were adopted with the following changes to the Plan regarding distributions:
•Required Minimum Distributions (RMD) were waived for 2020 — No one was required to take an RMD from a retirement plan or an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) in 2020. This change affected anyone who turned age 70½ in 2019 or earlier and would have been required to take an RMD.
•Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) withdrawals were made available — A new "coronavirus-related distribution" (CRD) was available. Employees affected by COVID-19* may have been eligible to withdraw up to $100,000 total from all retirement accounts, including retirement plans and IRAs.
*These provisions were limited to employees affected by COVID-19. This includes individuals (1) diagnosed with COVID-19 by a Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-approved test, (2) whose spouse or dependent was diagnosed by a CDC-approved test, or (3) who experiences adverse financial consequences due to quarantine; layoff, furlough or reduced hours; inability to work because of lack of child care; closure or reduced hours of a business owned by the individual due to the virus; or other reasons identified by the U.S. Department of Treasury.
Dividend Pass Through
A participant can make an election to receive cash dividends from the Phillips 66 Stock Fund and the Phillips 66 Leveraged Stock Fund on the portion of that participant’s account invested in Company Stock. The distribution of these dividends is made on each dividend payment date.
Participant Loans
Active employees can request a loan from their account in the Plan if their balance is at least $2,000. The minimum loan amount is $1,000. Generally, the maximum loan amount is the lesser of $50,000 or one-half of the participant’s account balance. Loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. Loan repayments are made through payroll deductions in equal amounts (or through automatic electronic debits (ACH) for participants who have left the Company). Three outstanding loans are available at a time, one of which can be a home loan. The maximum term of a home loan is 238 months, and the maximum term of a general purpose loan is 58 months.
Effective March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, provisions were adopted with the following changes to the Plan regarding participant loans:
•Participant loan limit changes — For a period from March 27, 2020 until September 23, 2020, affected individuals* could take participant loans up to a lesser of $100,000 or 100% of their vested Plan account balance.
•Loan repayment deferral — An affected individual* with an existing loan could suspend loan repayments for up to one year. The total repayment term of the loan could be extended by the duration of the suspension.
*These provisions were limited to employees affected by COVID-19. This includes individuals (1) diagnosed with COVID-19 by a Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-approved test, (2) whose spouse or dependent was diagnosed by a CDC-approved test, or (3) who experiences adverse financial consequences due to quarantine; layoff, furlough or reduced hours; inability to work because of lack of child care; closure or reduced hours of a business owned by the individual due to the virus; or other reasons identified by the U.S. Department of Treasury.
Trust Agreements
There are two trust agreements in place. One trust agreement is with Vanguard and it provides for the administration of certain assets in the Plan.
The other trust agreement is for the Stable Value Fund (SVF) and is managed under the Stable Value Fund Trust Agreement. The assets in this fund include stable value investment contracts and a short-term investment fund (STIF). Northern Trust Company serves as trustee of the Stable Value Fund Trust. Prior to July 1, 2019, State Street Bank and Trust Company was trustee of the Stable Value Fund Trust. Underlying the stable value investment contracts were units of common/collective trust (CCT) funds. Prior to June 2019, the stable value investment contracts consisted of units of CCT funds and pooled separate account (PSA) funds.
Administration
The Plan is administered by the Investment Committee and Benefits Committee (Committees), a Plan Financial Administrator, and a Plan Benefits Administrator, collectively referred to as the Plan Administrators. Members of the Committees are appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company or its delegate, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Plan Financial Administrator and the Plan Benefits Administrator are the persons who occupy, respectively, the Company positions of General Manager and Assistant Treasurer, Corporate Finance; and General Manager, Total Rewards. Members of the Committees and the Plan Administrators serve without compensation, but are reimbursed by the Company for necessary expenditures incurred in the discharge of their duties. Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid from assets of the Plan to the extent allowable by law, unless paid by the Company.
Note 2—Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Plan’s financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Distributions to participants or their beneficiaries are recorded when paid.
The SVF invests in fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. These investment contracts are recorded at contract value. Contract value is the relevant measurement attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. The contract value represents contributions plus earnings, less participant withdrawals and administrative expenses.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Notes receivable from participants represent participant loans that are recorded at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Interest income on notes receivable from participants is recorded when it is earned. Related fees are recorded as administrative expenses and are expensed when they are incurred. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded as of December 31, 2020 or 2019. If a participant ceases to make loan repayments and the Plan Administrators deem the participant loan to be a distribution, the participant loan balance is reduced and a benefit payment is recorded.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes and supplemental schedule. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 3—Investments
Investments held by the Plan are stated at fair value, except for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price).
Common stock values are based on their quoted market prices. Mutual funds are valued using quoted market prices which represent the net asset values of shares held by the Plan at year end. Separately Managed Accounts (SMA) are valued using the quoted market prices of the account's holding. The assets in the SVF include investment contracts and a STIF. The investment contracts were backed by units of CCTs. The STIF is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. See Note 4—Fair Value Measurements and Note 5—Investment Strategy for more detail on the investments held by the Plan.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in values of investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net assets available for benefits.
During 2020, the plan removed three closed funds, Corteva Stock Fund, Dow Stock Fund and DuPont de Nemours Stock Fund.
Note 4—Fair Value Measurements
GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1:
|
Unadjusted quoted prices from an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2:
|
Adjusted quoted prices from an active market for similar assets or liabilities; or valuation inputs that are directly or indirectly observable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3:
|
Unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.
|
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Plan’s investment assets at fair value:

Note 5—Investment Strategy
Stable Value Fund
The Plan's investment in the SVF is a separately managed portfolio exclusively available to the Plan participants. The SVF consists of synthetic investment contracts (SYNs) and a STIF. The STIF seeks to provide safety of principal and daily liquidity by investing in high quality money market instruments that include but are not limited to certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, commercial paper, bank notes, time deposits, corporate debt, and U.S. Treasury and agency debt. While the intent of this fund is to allow daily withdrawals on each business day when the Federal Reserve’s wire system is open, the trustee of the fund may suspend withdrawal rights at its sole discretion in certain situations such as a breakdown in the means of communication normally employed in determining the value of the investments of the fund or a state of affairs in which the disposition of the assets of the fund would not be reasonably practicable or would be seriously prejudicial to the fund participants. The STIF is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. In a SYN contract structure, the underlying investments are owned by the SVF and held in a trust for Plan participants. The underlying investments of the SYNs in the SVF Trust consist of CCTs. The SVF Trust purchases multiple wrapper contracts from insurance companies and/or banks to support the book value accounting (principal plus accrued income) to the Plan. The wrapper contract amortizes the realized and unrealized gains and losses on the underlying investments, typically over the duration of the investment, through adjustments to the future interest crediting rates. The issuers of the wrapper contracts provide assurances that the adjustments to the interest crediting rates do not result in future interest crediting rates that are less than zero. There are no reserves against contract value for credit risk of the contract issuers or the underlying investments. The crediting rates for most SYNs are reset monthly or quarterly and are based on the fair value of the underlying portfolio of assets backing these contracts. The total contract value of the SYNs as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, was $462 million and $506 million, respectively.
In certain circumstances, the amount withdrawn from investment contracts may be payable at fair value rather than contract value. These events include, but are not limited to, termination of the Plan or SVF, a material adverse change to the provisions of the Plan, a decision by the Plan Administrators to withdraw from or terminate an investment contract without securing a replacement contract, and in the event of a spin-off or sale of a division if the terms of a successor plan do not meet the investment contract issuer’s underwriting criteria for issuance of a clone investment contract. However, the events described above are not probable of occurring in the foreseeable future.
Examples of events that would permit a contract issuer to terminate an investment contract upon short notice include the Plan’s loss of its qualified tax status, un-cured material breaches of responsibilities, or material and adverse changes to the provisions of the Plan. If one of these occurred, the investment contract issuer could terminate the investment contract at fair value. The Plan Administrators do not anticipate any of these events are probable of occurrence.
Vanguard Trusts
Target Retirement Date Trusts
This category includes collective investment trusts in highly diversified funds designed to remain appropriate for investors in terms of risk throughout a variety of life circumstances. The year in the trust name refers to the approximate year (the target date) when an investor in the trust would retire and leave the workforce. Each trust will gradually shift its emphasis from more aggressive investments to more conservative ones based on its target date through asset allocation. The fair value of each trust reflects the proportionate interest in the net assets of the underlying investments.
Other Vanguard Trusts
This category includes passively and actively managed strategies of Vanguard funds that are comprised of domestic equities, international equities, and fixed income securities. The passively managed Vanguard Institutional Trusts seek to track the investment performance of the underlying performance index. The fair value of each trust reflects the proportionate interest in the net assets of the underlying investments.
Redemption Administration
The Trustee of the Vanguard Trusts, in its sole discretion, but upon consultation with the Plan, shall decide whether to honor a redemption request in cash, in kind, or a combination of both. The Trustee will use its best efforts to distribute proceeds to the redeeming Plan as soon as practicable; provided however, that (i) cash proceeds from the sale of securities liquidated to fund a withdrawal need not be paid until after the actual settlement date or dates of the sale of such securities; and (ii) the Trustee may suspend redemptions and/or postpone the payment of redemption proceeds at times when the New York Stock Exchange is closed or during other emergency circumstance.
Separately Managed Account
The Jackson Square SMID-Cap Growth Separately Managed Account represents the Plan's investment in this investment type. The SMA is a participant designated investment option, which has asset allocations primarily in common stock. Jackson Square Partners, LLC serves as investment manager of the SMA.
Note 6—Tax Status
The Plan Administrators received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dated April 28, 2015, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to the receipt of the determination letter, the Plan was amended and restated. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan administrator believes the Plan, as amended and restated, is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
GAAP requires plan management to evaluate uncertain tax positions taken by the Plan. The financial statement effects of a tax position are recognized when the position is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, to be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan Administrators have analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and have concluded there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken. The Plan has recognized no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
Note 7—Related-Party and Party in Interest Transactions
A large portion of the Plan’s assets are invested in Company Stock. Because Phillips 66 is the ultimate parent of the Company, transactions involving Company Stock qualify as related-party transactions. In addition, certain investments of the Plan are in shares of mutual funds and trusts managed by Vanguard. Since Vanguard is the Plan’s trustee, these transactions qualify as party in interest transactions. Northern Trust Company serves as the Plan's SVF trustee. Jackson Square Partners, LLC serves as the investment manager for the Jackson Square SMID Cap Growth SMA. Northern Trust and Jackson Square have a fiduciary responsibility to the Plan. All of these transaction types were exempt from the prohibited transaction rules.
Note 8—Plan Termination
In the event of termination of the Plan, participants and beneficiaries of deceased participants would be vested with respect to, and would receive, within a reasonable time, any funds in their accounts as of the date of the termination.
Note 9—Reconciliation of Financial Statements to Form 5500
