The Exchange Offer
The
final exchange ratio is 1.5905.
The final
exchange ratio is 1.5905 because the maximum exchange ratio (as
described below) is in effect. The exchange offer and withdrawal
rights expired at 12:00 midnight, New
York City time, on April 2, 2007.
Halliburton
offered to exchange up to 135,627,000 shares of KBR common stock in the
aggregate for outstanding shares of Halliburton common stock, as described in more detail in the
Prospectus-Offer to Exchange for the exchange offer (the ProspectusOffer to Exchange).
The exchange offer was designed to permit holders of Halliburton common stock to exchange their
shares for shares of KBR common stock at a 7.5% discount to the calculated per-share value of KBR
common stock, subject to a maximum limit of 1.5905 shares of KBR common stock for each share of
Halliburton common stock (the maximum exchange ratio), as described in the
ProspectusOffer to Exchange. Stated another way, for each $1.00 of Halliburton common stock
accepted in the exchange offer, the terms were designed so that the
tendering holder would receive approximately $1.08 of KBR common
stock, based on calculated per-share values, subject to the maximum exchange ratio.
The per-share value of Halliburton common stock
and the per-share value of KBR common stock used for purposes of
calculating the final exchange ratio equals the arithmetic average of the daily
volume-weighted average price (daily VWAP) for Halliburton common stock or KBR common
stock, as applicable, for March 27, 2007, March 28, 2007 and
March 29, 2007 (the valuation dates). Stated another way, the final calculated
per-share value
for each stock was calculated by adding the daily VWAP of the applicable stock for each of the
valuation dates and then calculating the average by dividing the
resulting total by three. The maximum exchange ratio is in effect
because the final calculated per-share values of Halliburton common
stock and KBR common stock would have resulted in an exchange ratio
that is greater than the maximum exchange ratio and, accordingly, the
final exchange ratio has been fixed at the maximum exchange ratio.
If the exchange offer is oversubscribed
and Halliburton cannot accept all tenders of Halliburton
common stock at the final exchange ratio, then all shares of Halliburton common stock that are validly
tendered will generally be accepted for
exchange on a pro rata basis in proportion to the number of shares tendered. We refer to this as
proration. Stockholders who beneficially own odd-lots (that is, less than 100 shares of
Halliburton common stock) other than through custodial accounts with Computershare or HBOS Employee
Equity Solutions and who validly tender all their shares will not be subject to proration if they
so request. Proration for each tendering stockholder will be based on the number of shares of
Halliburton common stock tendered by that stockholder in the exchange offer, and not on that
stockholders aggregate ownership of Halliburton common stock.

Glossary
calculated per-share value: The per-share value of Halliburton common stock and the per-share
value of KBR common stock used for purposes of calculating the
exchange ratio equals the
arithmetic average of the daily VWAP for Halliburton common stock and KBR common stock, as
applicable, on the NYSE for the valuation dates.
daily VWAP: VWAP for the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., New York City time (or such other time as
is the official open of trading on the NYSE), and ending at 4:00 p.m., New York City time (or such
other time as is the official close of trading on the NYSE), as calculated by Xignite, Inc., except
that the data used to make that calculation will take into account only those adjustments to
reported trades made by 4:10 p.m., New York City time. The daily VWAP calculated by Xignite, Inc.
may be different from volume-weighted average prices calculated by other sources or investors or
other security holders own calculations of volume-weighted average prices.
exchange ratio: The number of shares of KBR common stock that will be exchanged for each share of
Halliburton common stock accepted in the exchange offer. The final
exchange ratio has been published
by press release and is available on this website and from the information agent, Georgeson
Inc., at 1-866-313-3046 (toll-free in the United States), 1-212-805-7144 (elsewhere) or
1-212-440-9800 (banks and brokers).
maximum exchange ratio: The number of shares of KBR common stock each tendering Halliburton
stockholder will receive is subject to a maximum exchange ratio of 1.5905 shares of KBR common
stock for each share of Halliburton common stock accepted in the
exchange offer. BECAUSE THE MAXIMUM
EXCHANGE RATIO IS IN EFFECT, TENDERING HOLDERS WILL RECEIVE LESS THAN $1.08 OF KBR COMMON STOCK FOR
EACH $1.00 OF HALLIBURTON COMMON STOCK ACCEPTED IN THE EXCHANGE OFFER (BASED ON THE CALCULATED
PER-SHARE VALUES OF HALLIBURTON COMMON STOCK AND KBR COMMON STOCK, AS APPLICABLE, DURING THE
VALUATION DATES). STATED ANOTHER WAY, IF THE MAXIMUM
EXCHANGE RATIO WAS NOT IN EFFECT, THE FORMULA FOR CALCULATING THE EXCHANGE RATIO CONTEMPLATES THAT,
FOR EACH SHARE OF HALLIBURTON COMMON STOCK ACCEPTED IN THE EXCHANGE
OFFER, TENDERING HOLDERS WOULD HAVE RECEIVED A NUMBER OF SHARES OF KBR COMMON STOCK CALCULATED AT A 7.5% DISCOUNT TO THE PER-SHARE VALUE
OF KBR COMMON STOCK. HOWEVER, BECAUSE THE MAXIMUM EXCHANGE RATIO IS IN EFFECT, A TENDERING HOLDER WILL EXCHANGE
ITS SHARES OF HALLIBURTON COMMON STOCK FOR SHARES OF KBR COMMON STOCK AT A DISCOUNT OF LESS THAN
7.5% TO THE CALCULATED PER-SHARE VALUE OF KBR COMMON STOCK.
valuation dates: March 27, 2007, March 28, 2007 and March 29, 2007.
VWAP : The volume-weighted average price per share of the applicable stock on the New York Stock
Exchange during the period specified, as calculated by Xignite, Inc. The daily VWAP
calculated by Xignite, Inc. may be different from volume-weighted average prices calculated by
other sources or investors or other security holders own calculations of volume-weighted average
prices.
