Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock (collectively, “Section 16 persons”), to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Section 16 persons are required by Commission regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such reports received by us, or written representations from certain Section 16 persons that all Section 16(a) reports required to be filed for such persons had been filed, we believe that during 2009 the Section 16 persons complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them, except that Mr. Taylor, our Vice President and Controller, inadvertently filed one late report to disclose shares acquired pursuant to an equity award grant. We are unable to confirm whether Margaret Dorman, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements during 2009.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

All of our officers, employees and directors are required to comply with our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to help ensure that our business is conducted in accordance with the highest standards of ethical behavior. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers all areas of professional conduct, including customer relationships, conflicts of interest, insider trading, financial disclosure, intellectual property and confidential information, as well

as requiring strict adherence to all laws and regulations applicable to our business. Employees may report any violations or suspected violations of the Code by using our ethics hotline. The Code includes an anti-retaliation statement. The full text of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, as well as any waiver of a provision of the Code granted to any senior officer or director or material amendment to the Code, if any, is published on our website at www.smith.com under the “Investor Relations” caption and link to “Governance.” Stockholders may also obtain a free copy upon request by contacting our Corporate Secretary, Smith International, Inc., 1310 Rankin Road, Houston, Texas 77073.

Audit Committee

We have a separately-designated sanding audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. Messrs. Fraser (Chairman), Kelley and Landim are the current members of the Audit Committee. All members of this committee are “independent” within the meaning of the rules governing audit committees by the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE. The Board of Directors has determined that all members of the Audit Committee meet the NYSE standard of having accounting or related financial management expertise and meet the SEC’s criteria of an Audit Committee Financial Expert.


ITEM 11.		EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview

Compensation Objectives. We have designed our executive compensation program to reward our executives based on corporate, business unit and individual performance. The general objectives of our executive compensation program are to:

	•		Attract and retain the best available individuals to serve on our executive team;

	•		Motivate our executives to achieve our short- and long-term financial and operational goals; and

	•		Align our executives’ interests with those of our other stockholders.

Compensation Philosophy. The Compensation and Benefits Committee (referred to as the “Compensation Committee”) bases its executive compensation philosophy on the following principles:

	•		A significant portion of executive compensation should be variable and dependent on company and business unit performance.

	•		The principal measures of performance should be annual financial measures versus specified goals.

	•		Of the at-risk portion, a significant amount should be paid in equity with vesting restrictions (i) to align executive interests with those of our other stockholders and (ii) to promote long-term retention of our executives.

	•		Corporate executives’ incentive compensation plans should be tied to overall corporate performance whereas business unit executives’ plans should be tied in part to overall corporate performance and in part to the business unit performance for which they are responsible.

In the aftermath of the economic crisis, the Compensation Committee conducted an extensive review of our compensation policies to ensure that performance goals were aligned not only with long-term stockholder interests but also with our need to weather the crisis. In addition to emphasizing stockholder value objectives such as earnings per share and return on net capital employed, the Compensation Committee added specific identifiable goals related to cash flow, day-sales-outstanding and inventory reduction objectives that are crucial to us in a downturn. The Compensation Committee anticipates that it will continue using personal objectives in setting annual compensation goals, such as participation in quality, heath, environmental and safety initiatives or other types of activities requiring personal involvement of the executive officers that support our business success.

Decision Process. The Compensation Committee makes all executive compensation decisions. The Compensation Committee retained Pearl Meyer & Partners (referred to in this section as “Pearl Meyer”), an independent compensation consultant, to assist it in the decision making process. Pearl Meyer works for the

Compensation Committee and does not undertake assignments for management that exceed $120,000 per year. In October of each year, the Compensation Committee reviews preliminary recommendations from Pearl Meyer based on current and comparative compensation data, including benchmarking results as discussed below. For all executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee reviews recommendations and comparative data provided by Pearl Meyer and, in conjunction with additional input from the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President of Human Resources, especially as to individual executive performance, makes its decision. For the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee uses recommendations and comparative data provided by Pearl Meyer in making its decision.

Generally, the Compensation Committee makes final compensation decisions and sets performance targets in December of each year to correspond with the business plan for our upcoming fiscal year and with their evaluation of executive performance for the current year. Executive compensation decisions become effective January 1 of the upcoming fiscal year. With the exception of equity incentive awards for new hires or promotions, which are typically granted at the next Compensation Committee meeting after the hire or promotion date, we grant equity incentive awards only in December.

Benchmarking Group. The worldwide energy industry is a competitive environment for executive talent. To attract and retain a high level of executive expertise, we must remain competitive with the pay of companies with whom we compete for executive talent. Pearl Meyer provides us with general compensation information related to our industry and specific compensation information related to a group of companies in our industry whose executives have similar duties and responsibilities. The following companies compose our benchmarking group:

	•		Baker Hughes Incorporated

	•		BJ Services Company (on August 28, 2010, Baker Hughes announced that it had closed its acquisition of BJ Services)

	•		Cameron International Corporation

	•		FMC Technologies, Inc.

	•		Halliburton Company

	•		National Oilwell Varco, Inc.

	•		Schlumberger Limited

	•		Weatherford International Ltd.

Executive Position Grade Levels. We have established nine executive management grade levels. We assign all executive officers in the Company to a grade level consistent with the responsibility and authority of the position. The Compensation Committee, with the assistance of Pearl Meyer, uses the grade levels to establish guidelines for salary, target annual incentive awards, target long-term incentive awards, and perquisite benefits. The grade level for each individual executive officer typically corresponds to his or her management position; however, occasionally we may advance an individual to a higher level to recognize exceptional contributions. Variable pay awards and equity grants, as well as perquisite benefits, are consistent within each grade level.

Fixed versus Variable Pay. We divide our compensation program into two general categories, fixed and variable pay. Fixed pay consists of base salary and provides our executive officers with a level of assured cash compensation appropriate for their positions within the Company. Variable pay includes annual cash bonus awards and annual equity awards (each as explained in more detail below) and is the largest component of executive management’s total target compensation. Typically, the equity awards to executive officers are solely performance-based awards that are not earned unless financial performance goals are met.

Performance Matrices. At the beginning of each year, the Compensation Committee approves consolidated and business unit performance matrices that establish targets for the variable-pay component of executive compensation. Generally, these matrices are based on the financial performance goals established in our annual business plan, supplemented by personal objectives relevant to each business segment. Because the goals are pre-determined and market conditions fluctuate throughout the year, the performance goals may not correspond to our actual results.

This process has resulted in the establishment of performance goals that are not easily met and require excellent performance and effort by management regardless of general market conditions. For instance, in performance year 2008, when we reported record earnings and returns during a period of robust market activity in the oilfield service industry, the annual cash bonus awards for our named executive officers ranged from 44% to 200% of target and the performance-based equity awards were 92.6% of target. For performance year 2009, our results suffered from the extreme economic recession, particularly with respect to the North American gas drilling industry, and the annual cash bonus awards for our named executive officers ranged from 0% to 79% of target and the performance-based equity awards were 63.2% of target. For the last three years, the awards to the named executive officers as a percent of target are set forth in the table below.


	Percentage of Target Award Paid
	for Each Performance Year:
	2009			2008			2007
Annual Cash Bonus Award		0% - 79	%		44% - 200	%		35% - 162	%
Annual Equity Award		63.2	%		92.6	%		106.5	%

Alignment of Interests with Stockholders. Long-term equity incentives comprise a significant portion of total compensation for our executives. We award all long-term equity incentives as restricted stock units which vest ratably over either three or four years, depending on the type of award (three years for performance-based awards and four years for time-based awards). As a result, executives receive a significant amount of equity in the Company, thereby aligning their interests with those of the stockholders and providing incentive to avoid excessive risks. For instance, for the 2010 performance-year awards granted in December of 2009, approximately 70% of the total target compensation to our Chief Executive Officer was in equity-based performance awards. Equity-based compensation awards constituted 50% to 68% of the total target compensation to the other named executive officers and 40% to 55% of the total target compensation to the other executive officers. In determining the type of equity awards to grant, the Compensation Committee evaluated, among other considerations, the required accounting treatment and other tax and accounting implications of various types of equity awards. The Compensation Committee selected restricted stock units (“units”), discussed below, as the equity award component because we can offer equal long-term value as it could with stock options while issuing fewer shares, thus reducing the dilution effect of the equity program. Performance-based unit awards are earned only when the financial performance goals are met and are forfeited prior to issuance of the common stock if the financial performance goals are not met. All unit awards contain a retention element and align executive management with stockholder interests. For these reasons, the Compensation Committee has determined that units are the most appropriate long-term equity based incentive for the Company and are the only type of equity incentive that we currently award to our executive officers.

The Compensation Committee encourages stock ownership by executive management and periodically considers the appropriateness of implementing stock ownership guidelines. The Compensation Committee has chosen not to require stock ownership guidelines for the executive management at this time. Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our executive officers from engaging in any hedging or monetization transactions involving our securities.

Executive Compensation Components

Annual Base Salary. The Compensation Committee sets salaries for each executive by reference to the executive grade level of the position and individual performance. The criteria used in evaluating individual performance, including that of our Chief Executive Officer, vary depending on the executive’s function, but generally include:

	•		Leadership inside and outside the Company;

	•		Advancing our interests with customers, vendors and in other business relationships;

	•		Product quality and development;

	•		Advancement in skills and responsibility; and

	•		Financial results.

For the 2009 year, base salary represents 14% of Chief Executive Officer total target compensation and between approximately 17% and 30% of total target compensation for the other named executive officers. Base salary generally remains at the median level of the salary range, but may exceed the median if deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee.

Annual Cash Bonus. Our executive officers participate in the Executive Officer Annual Incentive Plan (“AIP”) which provides for annual cash bonuses. For the 2009 year, the Compensation Committee tied 14% of Chief Executive Officer total target compensation and between 15% and 20% of each other named executive officer’s total target compensation to the achievement of financial performance goals under the AIP.

Participants in the AIP can earn an annual cash bonus based upon the achievement of our established financial performance goals, supplemented by personal goals set for each executive officer, for each fiscal year, as described

above in “Fixed versus Variable Pay” and “Performance Matrices”. The target annual bonus percentages for the executive officers are determined based upon the grade level of the executive officer and are generally close to the median of the benchmarking group. The payout award, if any, is determined by multiplying the actual annual cash bonus percentage earned by the product of the target annual cash bonus percentage times the executive’s base salary.

Depending upon our financial performance, the AIP payout can range from zero to 200% of the target annual cash bonus percentage. Upon the achievement of the target financial performance goals, participants earn 100% of their target annual cash bonus.

The Compensation Committee has no discretion to increase any award after establishing the performance targets, but may decrease or eliminate any annual bonus award, even if the Company or the executive meets the established performance targets. The Committee periodically uses such negative discretion as an additional catalyst to encourage compliance with particular personal goals for the executive management that emerge during the fiscal year and that were not initially included in the performance matrices. The Company intends that the AIP comply with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) so that amounts paid under the AIP will be fully deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes.

Annual Restricted Stock Unit Award. The annual restricted stock unit (“unit”) award, issued pursuant to the Third Amended and Restated Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (“LTIP”), is the largest single component of total target annual compensation. Units represent the right to receive shares of common stock in the future, depending upon the achievement of the target equity goal for the coming year (for performance-based unit awards) or continued employment with the Company (for time-based unit awards). As discussed above, in typical years, executive officers receive only performance-based unit awards. As discussed above, generally the Compensation Committee makes compensation decisions for the upcoming fiscal year in December of each year. In December 2008, the global business environment was significantly deteriorating and the economic outlook was extremely volatile, particularly as related to projections for oil price and rig count, two key drivers for our business. In addition, the market value of our common stock had declined significantly from the beginning of 2008, as had that of the S&P 500 Index, the Philadelphia Oil Service Index (OSX), and our peer companies, including those of our benchmarking group. It was against this backdrop that our Compensation Committee made their compensation decisions for 2009.

When approving the December 2008 equity awards for the 2009 performance year, the Compensation Committee considered the possibility that global industry conditions, along with general economic market conditions, could worsen beyond any then-current projections. In that case, 2009 performance targets may not have been reasonably achievable for non-operational related reasons outside the control or influence of management, resulting in a zero payout for all performance-based compensation. Historically, we granted equity awards to our executive officers that were 100% performance-based. To ensure the retention value of the 2009 equity pay component, particularly during the uncertain market conditions, the Compensation Committee granted 20% of the total equity awards as time-based units for all executive officers, except our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Yearwood. The remaining 80% of the equity awards continued to consist of performance-based units. Mr. Yearwood received only performance-based units. The Compensation Committee viewed the 2009 performance period award structure as a one-time change due to the extenuating circumstances of the economic crisis. It did not contemplate continuing this mix of performance-based and time-based unit awards to the executive officers and returned in December 2009 to granting only performance-based units to the executive officers.

The Compensation Committee sets the monetary value of the awards by grade level for equity awards with all executive officers in the same grade level receiving unit awards of the same monetary value. The awards for the 2009 and 2010 performance years were in the range of the 50^th percentile of equity awards granted by the benchmarking group. Award recipients do not own the underlying shares until the awards have been earned and vested; accordingly, participants have no voting rights on the shares and do not receive dividends until the shares are earned and vested. The number of target units granted is determined based on the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant, discounted for the present value of the dividends that are not paid on the unvested shares based on the dividend rate at the time of the award. The time-based units vest in equal installments over a four-year period based on continued employment requirements. If the performance-based units are earned at year-end by meeting the predetermined financial performance goals, they vest in equal installments over a three-year period based on continued employment requirements.

Depending upon performance, the payout for the performance-based unit awards for the 2009 performance year could range from zero to 130% of the target. Upon the achievement of the target equity goal, participants earn 100% of the units awarded. Once the financial performance goals have been set, the Compensation Committee does not exercise any discretion in the number of units awarded. In December 2009, the Compensation Committee evaluated the payout range for the executive officers. In order to encourage extraordinary efforts by our senior leadership team, the Compensation Committee increased the maximum payout to 150% of the target for the top four grade levels beginning with the 2010 performance year awards.

2009 Compensation and Performance Year Awards.

The 2009 corporate performance metrics, set in March 2009 and used in the AIP, are (i) earnings per share and (ii) return on net capital employed, together composing 80% of the AIP goal, and cash flow generation based on a consolidated receivable and inventory reduction goal composing 20% of the AIP goal. The LTIP performance matrix is based on a return on net capital employed goal. Both of these sets of metrics are shown in the tables below. The business unit metrics for the AIP are set for each specific business unit and include (i) earnings and return on operating assets or return on net capital employed goals and (ii) free cash flow or a combination of day-sales-outstanding and inventory reduction goals. When consolidated, the business unit goals align with the consolidated AIP goals. The Compensation Committee selected these financial measurements because these metrics are readily understood by the executives, provide a balanced incentive to increase income while managing our investment in our net assets, and relate directly to the creation of economic value that is ultimately reflected in share value.

Annual Cash Bonus. For the 2009 performance year, the grade level and target AIP percentages for the named executive officers were as follows:


	Performance Year 2009
Name	Grade Level		Target AIP %
D. Rock*		n/a		120	%
J. Yearwood		I		100	%
W. Restrepo	III			65	%
C. Rivers	II			85	%
N. Mckay	II			85	%
B. Dudman	II			85	%
M. Dorman**	II			85	%


*		Mr. Rock serves as our Chairman of the Board, which was an executive officer position during 2009. He was compensated pursuant to his employment agreement and so was not in any particular officer grade level.

**		Ms. Dorman served as our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer until October 2009.

The AIP target goals for the 2009 performance year included a performance matrix with a corporate earnings per share target of $1.34 and a return on net capital employed target of 15.5% representing 80% of the plan goals. The remaining 20% of the plan goals included a consolidated receivable and inventory reduction goal of $1,148 million. The metrics are set forth below. For the 2009 performance year, our earnings per share were $0.66, return on net capital employed was 11.7% and consolidated receivable and inventory reductions from December 31, 2008 were $1,009 million; resulting in a payout of 15.4% to Messrs. Rock, Yearwood and Restrepo.

The business unit matrices and payout calculations follow a similar model, with the same payout range, but with targets that are specific to each business unit. The actual performance levels achieved by the business units were below the target goals, resulting in Messrs. Rivers, Dudman and Mckay (pro-rated for time of employment) earning 58.7%, 0% and 79.2%, respectively, of their target annual cash bonus percentage. Because Ms. Dorman was not an employee as of December 31, 2009, she did not earn any award under the AIP.

Annual Equity Award. All units granted to Mr. Yearwood in 2008 for the 2009 performance year were performance-based units. Messrs. Rivers and Dudman received a mix of 80% performance-based units and 20% time-based units. Because Mr. Mckay joined the Company in November 2009, he did not receive any performance-based units for the 2009 performance year. No units were granted to Mr. Rock in 2008 for the 2009 performance year. The target for the 2009 performance year was return on net capital employed was 15.5%, the same level as for the AIP. The matrix is set forth below. For the 2009 performance year, our return on net capital employed was 11.67%, resulting in each individual earning 63.2% of their target unit award. Because Ms. Dorman was not an employee as of December 31, 2009, she did not receive any performance-based unit awards based on the criteria set forth above. Her settlement agreement is described in the section titled “Employment Agreements” below.

Other Executive Compensation Components

Perquisites. We have an interest in ensuring the physical and mental wellness of our employees and, therefore, provide for a reimbursement of up to $3,000 for an annual physical for each executive officer. In addition, in lieu of providing specific perquisites, we provide a set dollar amount of specifically identified perquisites. This dollar amount is consistent within each grade level for U.S. residents and within corporate guidelines established for non-U.S. residents and is paid annually in 26 equal bi-weekly payments, as identified in the footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table. The executive officers do not need to spend their allowance on the specified items, but are free to use the allowance at their discretion. The perquisite package for non-U.S. residents follows a similar methodology with different dollar amounts. Mr. Mckay receives the non-U.S. perquisite package, as identified in the footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table. We believe that providing a set dollar amount allows our executive officers more flexibility and is more efficient to administer than reimbursing for each individual expense. The amount provided is reviewed periodically and is consistent with perquisites provided by the benchmarking group. In addition, our executive officers may receive personal administrative assistant services at no incremental cost to us. Perquisite amounts are not considered annual salary for bonus purposes or 401(k) contributions.

401(k) Plan. We believe that financial security during retirement is an important benefit to provide to our executive management. For this reason, we and various of our subsidiaries offer 401(k) plans to our employees, including our executive officers. Because the Company and subsidiary plans operate and are administered in a similar fashion, for purposes of this discussion, the 401(k) plans will be referred to in the singular. Participants may contribute up to the federal limit in the 401(k) plan. We make various levels of contributions to the 401(k) plan, including age-weighted contributions and performance-based matching contributions as defined in the 401(k) plan. Although the majority of our peers have both defined benefit and defined contribution plans, the Compensation Committee elected to implement a defined contribution plan (the “401(k) plan”) to control our costs. Our 401(k) plan is consistent with similar plans available generally in the energy industry. Executive officers participate in the 401(k) plan on the same basis as other employees.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. In addition to the 401(k) plan described above, our officers, including all of the executive officers, and other key employees are eligible to participate in our Post-2004 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “post-2004 SERP”). In connection with the adoption of the post-2004 SERP, we suspended contributions to our previous SERP (“SERP”), except for guaranteed interest contributions discussed in the narrative disclosure following the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table. The SERP and post-2004 SERP were implemented to allow our officers to defer additional pre-tax compensation for retirement without regard to the limits placed on 401(k) plans under the Code. We believe that the post-2004 SERP is an important tool for the retirement planning efforts of our officers. Moreover, after reviewing data from the benchmarking group, our Compensation Committee determined that the post-2004 SERP is important to remain competitive in the compensation arena. Additional information regarding the operation of the SERP and post-2004 SERP may be found in the footnotes and narrative disclosure following the Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Table.

Change of Control and Employment Agreements

Change of Control Agreements. We have entered into change of control agreements with ten members of management, including all of the named executive officers. After reviewing benchmarking studies performed by outside legal counsel at the request of the Compensation Committee in 1999, the Compensation Committee adopted a form of change of control agreement. The Compensation Committee periodically reviews the terms of the change of control agreements and retains outside legal counsel to conduct benchmarking studies to determine whether the change of control agreements remain competitive in our industry. As a result of these reviews, the Compensation Committee periodically revises the form of change of control agreement. In December 2009, the Compensation Committee revised the form of change of control agreement to eliminate tax gross-ups.

The Compensation Committee has determined that the change of control agreements are a necessary component of our compensation package in order for us to provide competitive compensation arrangements, particularly because such agreements are standard in our industry. In addition, they make executives neutral to change of control transactions that are in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders, and thereby help create, rather than diminish, stockholder value. Moreover, we believe that the change of control agreements help us to attract and retain our executive officers by reducing the personal uncertainty and anxiety that arises from the possibility of a future business combination. We selected objective criteria to determine whether a change of control has occurred for purposes of the change of control agreements in order to reduce the likelihood of a dispute in the

event of a change of control and to help ensure that the agreements are triggered only under circumstances when a true transfer of control or ownership has occurred. While the change of control agreements do not influence decisions regarding compensation elements, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews the terms of the change of control agreements so that they remain generally consistent with those of the benchmarking group. Additional information regarding the change of control agreements may be found in the section titled “Executive Compensation—Change of Control and Employment Agreements.”

Employment Agreements. When the Company emerged from bankruptcy in 1987, it offered employment agreements to certain key officers. The only remaining executive officer with an employment agreement is Mr. Dudman. The Company entered into this agreement primarily as a retention tool, but also because our board of directors felt that Mr. Dudman could provide extraordinary and unique management and strategy skills to maintain and grow the Company. The Compensation Committee no longer offers these types of employment agreements to executive officers. Mr. Dudman’s employment agreement contains severance provisions that would entitle him to receive a lump sum payment in cash equal to his current annual base salary, bonus and benefits through the end of the employment period (three years) in the event that he were to be terminated by the Company (other than for cause, death or disability) or if for any reason his position is eliminated or otherwise becomes redundant, except in the event of a change of control, in which case severance would be paid pursuant to his change of control agreement as explained in the section titled “Executive Compensation—Change of Control and Employment Agreements.” Mr. Dudman’s agreement was restated in 2008 to comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, but otherwise remains the same agreement as executed in 1987.

In addition, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Rock upon his retirement as Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer (the “Rock agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Rock will serve as a Special Executive Advisor or in such other position as determined by our board of directors for a period commencing January 1, 2009 and ending on the first day following the conclusion of our annual meeting of stockholders for the calendar year 2010. Mr. Rock remained a member of our board of directors and the Chairman of the Board after January 1, 2009. Effective as of 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2008, the Rock agreement superseded Mr. Rock’s previous employment agreement with the Company and Mr. Rock’s previous change of control employment agreement with the Company. The Rock agreement provides for an annual base salary of $1.3 million, a target bonus of 120% of base salary with respect to our 2009 fiscal year and eligibility to participate in all Company benefit and perquisite plans during the employment period other than our Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. The Rock agreement and Mr. Rock’s employment may be terminated by either the Company at any time or by Mr. Rock with 30 days written notice, and terminates automatically upon a change of control (as defined in the Rock agreement). Mr. Rock has informed the Company that the Rock agreement will terminate effective May 12, 2010. In the event that Mr. Rock’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability (as defined in the Rock agreement), by the Company without cause (as defined in the Rock agreement) or due to a change of control, Mr. Rock is entitled to certain accrued obligations and a termination payment equal to $108,333.33 times the number of whole months (rounded up or down as provided for in the Rock agreement) between the date of termination and the original termination date of the Rock agreement. Mr. Rock is subject to an ongoing confidentiality covenant and a non-competition covenant during the term of the Rock agreement.

In connection with Ms. Dorman’s departure from the Company effective October 16, 2009, the Company and Ms. Dorman entered into a separation agreement on September 28, 2009, under which Ms. Dorman received a one-time lump sum severance payment of $2,697,514, less applicable taxes and deductions, reimbursement for health coverage premiums for up to eighteen months following October 16, 2009 to the extent Ms. Dorman elects to participate in COBRA coverage, executive-level outplacement services for a period of one year following October 16, 2009 and accelerated vesting of all outstanding equity grants, with an exercise period of up to three-years for outstanding stock options. Vesting of the performance-based restricted stock units relating to the 2009 performance period were accelerated and paid out at a level reflecting then-anticipated achievement of the 2009 performance metrics. These special severance benefits were contingent upon execution of a general release, which was executed, and ongoing compliance with confidentiality, non-disparagement and cooperation obligations.

Pension Plan. The Company has a defined benefit pension plan, which is currently frozen. The benefit accruals were frozen effective March 1, 1987, and the amount of the pension benefit was fixed for all eligible employees based only upon benefit accruals from September 1, 1985 to March 1, 1987. Mr. Rock is the only named executive officer with any benefit accruals under the plan. Any benefits under the pension plan are offset by benefits paid under a previous pension plan of the Company. There are no executive officers with any benefit accruals under the plan.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation and Benefits Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A with management. Based on such review and discussion, the Committee recommended to our board of directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

(1)		Includes age-weighted and matching contributions made by the Company and additional Company contributions, if any, as explained below. These amounts are reported in the All Other Compensation column for each named executive officer in the Summary Compensation Table.

Smith International, Inc. Post-2004 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. The Smith International, Inc. Post-2004 Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “post-2004 SERP”) is a non-qualified, deferred compensation plan, for the benefit of officers and certain other eligible employees of the Company as selected by the Compensation Committee. Participants may contribute, on a pre-tax basis, up to 100% of their cash compensation, as defined in the post-2004 SERP. Distributions may generally be made either as a lump sum or installment payments following the participant’s termination of employment due to death, disability, retirement or other separation from service. Distributions may also be made on a limited basis and to the extent necessary as a lump sum upon the occurrence of the participant’s unforeseeable financial emergency as approved by the Compensation Committee. The post-2004 SERP also provides for Company contributions, as follows:

Age-Weighted Contributions. The Company provides an age-weighted contribution percentage (“AWCP”) ranging from 2% to 6% of qualified compensation, less any age-weighted contributions made to the participant’s 401(k) account. The post-2004 SERP provides that the AWCP for executive officers is 6% of qualified compensation regardless of age. The difference between a participant’s (i) “Total 401(k) Compensation” and (ii) “Net 401(k) Compensation” is multiplied by the AWCP to compute the age-weighted contribution. “Total

401(k) Compensation” generally means the total of all cash amounts paid by the Company to a participant, including deferred amounts. “Net 401(k) Compensation” generally means Total 401(k) Compensation less participant contributions to the post-2004 SERP, but not to exceed the limit set under the Code.

Matching Contributions. The Company provides a performance-based matching contribution ranging from zero to 100% of salary deferrals that mirrors the matching formulas in effect for the our 401(k) plan, but without regard to certain Code limits applicable to the 401(k) plan. Matching contributions for all plan participants are limited to 6% of total 401(k) compensation, less the maximum dollar amount of matching contributions that could be made in their individual 401(k) accounts for that year. Executive officers receive 100% matching contributions subject to the same limitation.

Additional Company Contributions. Deferred funds are placed with the fund trustee and invested at the discretion of the participant in a variety of funds, including a money market fund. The Company guarantees that the deferrals invested in the money market fund will yield interest at 120% of the long-term applicable federal rate (“AFR”). Therefore, in addition to the contributions described above, for the portion of each participant’s account invested in the money market fund that is earning less than 120% of AFR, the Company makes a contribution equal to the difference in interest between the money market fund rate actually earned by the money market fund and 120% of the AFR, which contribution is credited to the participant’s account.

Discretionary Profit Sharing Contributions. The Compensation Committee may, in its discretion, determine the amount of any profit sharing contribution for a plan year and how that amount is to be allocated among the accounts of the post-2004 SERP participants.

In the event of insolvency or bankruptcy, all assets allocable to the post-2004 SERP are available to satisfy the claims of all general unsecured creditors of the Company. The Company established a grantor trust to serve as a source of funds from which it can satisfy its obligations under the post-2004 SERP. Participants in the post-2004 SERP will have no rights to any assets held in the trust, except as general unsecured creditors of the Company. A participant’s rights to any amounts credited to an account under the post-2004 SERP cannot be anticipated, alienated, sold, assigned, pledged, encumbered or charged by the participant and may only pass upon the participant’s death pursuant to a beneficiary designation made by the participant under the post-2004 SERP. The Company may, by action of the Compensation Committee, terminate the post-2004 SERP with respect to future contributions; provided, however, such termination shall not affect any participant’s right to receive any distribution due under the post-2004 SERP.

The post-2004 SERP will be interpreted by the Compensation Committee in such manner as necessary to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and the authority issued thereunder.

Smith International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. In connection with the adoption of the post-2004 SERP and Code Section 409A, the Company suspended contributions to the SERP effective December 31, 2004, other than such contributions that were earned and vested as of December 31, 2004. However, the Company may be required to make contributions to participants’ accounts to guarantee an investment return equal to 120% of the AFR on deferrals invested in the money market fund, in the same manner as explained above.

With respect to insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, participant’s rights, beneficiary designations and plan termination, the SERP is in all material respects the same as the post-2004 SERP.

Change of Control and Employment Agreements

Employment Agreements. As discussed in Compensation Discussion and Analysis above, during 2009 the Company had an employment agreement from 1987 with Mr. Dudman. The agreement has an initial term of three years and is automatically extended for an additional year at each anniversary date. Automatic renewals may not be suspended by the Company without triggering severance. The agreement automatically terminates when Mr. Dudman reaches age 65. The employment agreement contains salary and other conditions of employment and entitles Mr. Dudman to participate in our bonus program and other benefit programs. If the employment of Mr. Dudman is terminated by the Company (other than for cause, death or disability) or if for any reason his position is eliminated or otherwise becomes redundant, Mr. Dudman would be entitled to receive a lump sum payment in cash equal to his current annual base salary, bonus and benefits through the end of the employment period; provided, however, that in the event of a change of control, the change of control agreements discussed below would control, except with respect to any accrued obligations under the employment agreement that were not fully accrued under the applicable change of control agreement.

The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Rock upon his retirement as Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer (the “Rock agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Rock will serve as a Special Executive Advisor or in such other position as determined by our board of directors for a period commencing January 1, 2009 and ending on the first day following the conclusion of our annual meeting of stockholders for the calendar year 2010. Mr. Rock remained a member of our board of directors and the Chairman of the Board after January 1, 2009. Effective as of 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2008, the Rock agreement superseded Mr. Rock’s previous employment agreement with the Company and Mr. Rock’s previous change of control employment agreement with the Company. The Rock agreement provides for an annual base salary of $1.3 million, a target bonus of 120% of base salary with respect to our 2009 fiscal year and eligibility to participate in all Company benefit and perquisite plans during the employment period other than our Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan. The Rock agreement and Mr. Rock’s employment may be terminated by either the Company at any time or by Mr. Rock with 30 days written notice, and terminates automatically upon a change of control (as defined in the Rock agreement). Mr. Rock has informed the Company that the Rock agreement will terminate effective May 12, 2010. In the event that Mr. Rock’s employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability (as defined in the Rock agreement), by the Company without cause (as defined in the Rock agreement) or due to a change of control, Mr. Rock is entitled to certain accrued obligations and a termination payment equal to $108,333.33 times the number of whole months (rounded up or down as provided for in the Rock agreement) between the date of termination and the original termination date of the Rock agreement. Mr. Rock is subject to an ongoing confidentiality covenant and a non-competition covenant during the term of the Rock agreement.

Change of Control Agreements. The Company previously entered into change of control agreements with its executive officers (the “2009 change of control agreements”), except for Messrs. Restrepo and Mckay. The 2009 change of control agreements were in effect until December 31, 2009. Effective January 1, 2010, the Company replaced all existing change of control agreements and entered into new agreements with Messrs. Restrepo and Mckay, which were identical in all respects to the 2009 change of control agreements except that the tax gross-up provision was eliminated (the “2010 change of control agreements”). Throughout this section, the agreements are referred to collectively as the “change of control agreements”, with any differences between the agreements noted. In the event of a “change of control” of the Company (as defined in the change of control agreements), the change of control agreements provide for the continued employment of the executive officers for a period of three years and provide for the continuation of salary and benefits.

“Change of control” generally means (a) with certain exceptions, the acquisition of beneficial ownership of 30% or more of the outstanding shares of our common stock or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Company; (b) with certain exceptions, a change in the majority of the board of directors serving as directors as of the date of the change of control agreement; (c) the consummation of a business combination transaction where (i) the beneficial owners of our common stock immediately prior to the business combination transaction own less than 60% of the outstanding shares of common stock (or equivalent securities) of the corporation resulting from such business combination transaction (the “surviving corporation”), (ii) with certain exceptions, a person is the beneficial owner of 30% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock or the combined voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the surviving corporation, and (iii) less than a majority of the members of the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of the surviving corporation were members of the board of directors at the time of the execution of the business combination agreement, or of the action of the board of directors, providing for the business combination transaction; or (d) approval by our stockholders of a complete liquidation or dissolution.

If, after a change of control event, the executive is terminated by the Company (other than for cause, death or disability), or if the executive elects to terminate his or her employment for “good reason” (as defined in the change of control agreements), the executive is entitled to receive the following:

	•		A lump sum cash payment equal to:

	•		The current annual base salary through the date of termination to the extent not paid and highest annual bonus (as explained below) prorated for the number of days worked in the year (referred to as “accrued obligations”).

	•		Any compensation previously deferred by the executive and any accrued vacation pay to the extent not paid.

	•		The sum of the executive’s annual base salary and highest annual bonus (as explained below) multiplied by the termination multiple applicable to the executive (as explained below), with annual base salary to be

			calculated as 12 times the highest monthly base salary paid or payable to the executive during the preceding 12 months.

	•		Any actuarial difference in the SERP benefit the executive would have received had the executive’s employment continued for the number of years after the date of the executive’s termination multiplied by the termination multiples applicable to the executive.

	•		For these calculations, the annual bonus is calculated as the highest annual bonus paid or payable to the executive for the last three full fiscal years prior to the effective date of the change of control event.

	•		Continued coverage under applicable welfare and benefit plans for a number of years equal to the termination multiple applicable to the executive.

	•		Outplacement services for the executive.

	•		Any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided under any other Company plan (referred to as “other benefits”).

	•		A tax gross-up of any excise tax due under the Code. As discussed above, this provision was eliminated from the 2010 change of control agreements.

If the executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the executive’s death or disability, the executive or the estate of the executive shall be entitled to payment of accrued obligations and other benefits as explained above.

Termination Multiple. The change of control agreements for all executive officers include a termination multiple of three times for termination of employment in year one after the change of control event; two times in year two; and one time in year three.

Stock Incentive Plan. Our Third Amended and Restated 1989 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the vesting of all outstanding stock options and the satisfaction of all restrictions and conditions on restricted stock and other stock-based awards and the full vesting at 100% target levels of all performance-based awards, as of the day immediately preceding the change of control date.

Potential Payments upon a Change of Control. The table below shows potential payments if an executive is terminated other than for cause or voluntary termination after a change of control event. The amounts assume that the change of control event and termination of employment were both effective on December 31, 2009, and are estimates that reflect the amounts that would be paid and the incremental value of benefits that would be enhanced through accelerated vesting of options and stock awards. The value of equity awards is based on our closing market price of $27.17 per share on December 31, 2009. As discussed above, the accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards occurs on the day immediately preceding the change of control date, regardless of whether the executive is terminated or terminates his or her employment following the change of control event. The table also assumes that the executive has been paid in full for salary due for the fiscal year and has no deferred compensation, pro-rated perquisites payments or accrued vacation due for the year. Because the termination is assumed to be on the same day as the change of control, amounts shown use a 3x termination multiple for all executives. If the termination of employment occurred in year two after the change of control event, the termination multiple would be 2x, and if the termination of employment occurred in year three after the change of control event, the termination multiple would be 1x.

(1)		Because the termination is assumed to be effective on December 31, 2009, the amount shown represents bonus for the full year.


(2)		Amounts shown in column (c) assume a 3x termination multiple for all executives.

(3)		Amounts shown in column (d) represent the value of unvested options that would accelerate upon a change of control based on the difference between the closing price of our common stock at the end of fiscal 2009 and the exercise price of the respective options. The number of vested and exercisable options outstanding for each individual on December 31, 2009 is included in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End table.

(4)		Amounts shown in column (e) represent the value of unvested performance-based restricted stock units for the 2010 performance year at the target performance level and unvested restricted stock units, the vesting of which would accelerate upon a change of control based on the closing price of our common stock at the end of fiscal 2009.

(5)		Amounts shown in column (f) represent the excess of (i) the actuarial equivalent of the benefit under our current SERP and previous SERP and (ii) the actuarial equivalent of the executive’s actual benefit, if any, as of the date of termination, assuming that the executive’s base salary and contribution amounts remain at the same level as the highest monthly salary paid during fiscal year 2009. Amounts assume a 3x termination multiple for all executives.

(6)		Amounts shown in column (g) represent the continuation of benefits to the executive and the executive’s family equal to those that would have been provided to them in accordance with the plans if (i) the executive’s employment had not terminated and (ii) the executive had remained employed and retired on the last day of such period, assuming full family coverage at the lowest deductible amounts under all benefit plans for each individual. Amounts assume benefits for three years for all executives. This amount also includes $50,000 in outplacement services for each executive.

(7)		Assuming the terms of the 2010 change of control agreements had been in effect as of December 31, 2009, none of the named executive officers would have received tax gross-up payments. Accordingly, the total paid to Messrs. Yearwood, Rivers and Dudman would have been $11,560,994, $6,924,574 and $7,440,161.

(8)		Mr. Rock’s change of control payments are governed by the terms of the Rock agreement, discussed above.

(9)		Mr. Restrepo did not have a 2009 change of control agreement. Assuming the terms of his 2010 change of control agreement had been in effect as of December 31, 2009, he would have received the following amounts:

(1)		These amounts represent matching educational gifts made on behalf of Mr. Fraser and Mr. Kelley, as indicated.

(2)		Mr. Kelley deferred the issuance of his annual common stock award until his retirement from our board of directors.

Directors’ Compensation

Employee directors receive no additional compensation other than their normal salary for serving on our board of directors. Non-employee directors receive $50,000 annually and $2,000 for each board meeting attended. In addition, they are paid $10,000 per year for chairing a committee (other than the chairman of the Audit Committee who is paid $15,000 per year) and $2,000 for each committee meeting attended even if they are not members of such committee. The Lead Director is paid $15,000 per year. Expenses for company related business travel are either paid or reimbursed by us. Non-employee directors also receive an initial grant of shares, upon first election or appointment, along with an annual grant of shares of Company common stock, each with a value of approximately $200,000.

Non-Employee Director Programs

We terminated our Directors’ Retirement Plan in 1998. We issued restricted stock unit grants to each of the non-employee directors in 1999 to fund the actuarial value of their accrued benefits under the retirement plan. These grants of 24,000 shares (adjusted for the two-for-one stock splits on June 20, 2002 and August 24, 2005) will vest upon retirement after ten years of service as a director. Cash dividends are not paid and do not accrue on the unvested units. The only director with outstanding restricted stock units is Mr. Gibbs.

Director Stock Ownership Guidelines

Our board of directors has established non-employee director stock ownership guidelines to align the interests of the directors with those of our stockholders and further promote our commitment to sound corporate governance. The guidelines are premised upon every non-employee director holding a number of shares of common stock equaling five times the director’s annual cash retainer, within three years of the date the guidelines become effective with respect to said individual.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2009, Messrs. Gibbs, Fraser and Kelley served as members of our Compensation and Benefits Committee. None of the Compensation and Benefits Committee members has served as an employee or officer of the Company, and none of our executive officers has served as a director or member of the compensation committee of another entity, which has an executive officer serving as a member of our board of directors.

This information is based upon information furnished to us by these persons and statements filed with the SEC. The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined under SEC rules, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes, each person has sole voting and investment power (or shares such powers with his or her spouse) with respect to the shares shown as beneficially owned.

(“Price Associates”) has sole voting power over 4,872,222 shares of our common stock and sole dispositive power over 18,335,302 shares of our common stock. These securities are owned by various individual and institutional investors for which Price Associates serves as investment adviser with power to direct investments and/or sole power to vote the securities.

Such filing indicates that The Growth Fund has sole voting power over 12,697,098 shares of our common stock and sole dispositive power over no shares of our common stock. Such filing also indicates that The Growth Fund is advised by CRMC which manages equity assets for various investment companies through two divisions, Capital Research Global Investors and Capital World Investors. These divisions generally function separately from each other with respect to investment research activities and they make investment decisions and proxy voting decisions for the investment companies on a separate basis.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIP AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

The Audit Committee has adopted a written policy which provides guidelines for monitoring and approving transactions with related parties. Pursuant to the policy, related parties include all executive and operating officers, members of the board of directors and stockholders who own more than 5% of our common stock. Transactions with related parties that are entered into at prevailing prices and which comply with standard terms and conditions require no prior approval, except that all transactions with our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer require pre-approval from the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Transactions with related parties that do not reflect prevailing prices and do not comply with standard terms and conditions require pre-approval from our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

We have not engaged in any transaction, or series of similar transactions, since the beginning of 2009, nor is there any currently proposed transaction, or series of similar transactions, to which we or any of our subsidiaries was or is to be a participant, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and in which any of our directors or executive officers, members of their immediate family or any stockholder who owns more than 5% of our common stock had, or will have, a direct or indirect material interest.

Director Independence

The board of directors annually evaluates the independence of the directors and has affirmatively determined that all directors are independent except Messrs. Rock and Yearwood, who are employees of the Company, and Mr. Carroll, who was an employee of the Company within the past three years. The board of directors’ determination regarding independence and financial expertise of its members is based on applicable laws and regulations, our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the rules of the SEC and NYSE and a review of any direct or indirect relationship between each director or his immediate family and the Company. To be considered independent, the board of directors must affirmatively determine that a director has no material relationship with the Company. In each case, the board of directors broadly considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including the director’s commercial, industrial, consulting, legal, accounting, charitable and familial relationships and such other criteria as the board of directors may determine from time to time. In evaluating the independence of each non-employee director, the board considered that in the ordinary course of business our subsidiaries buy from or sell to companies with which our directors have relationships as follows:

	(1)		Mr. Gibbs is Chairman of the Board, and former President and Chief Executive Officer, of Frontier Oil Corporation.

	(2)		Mr. Fraser is a director of Forest Oil Corporation and Terra Industries.

	(3)		Mr. Kelley is a director of Cabot Oil & Gas Corporation and OGE Energy Corp.

	(4)		Mr. Landim is a director of Globex Utilidades S.A.

	(5)		Mr. Carroll is a director of Forest Oil Corporation.

	(6)		Mr. Radtke is a director of NFR Energy; 35% owner of Juniper Exploration LLP and 100% owner of Valiant Exploration LLC.

All of these companies expect to continue their business relationship in 2010.
