PROXY STATEMENT
FOR
ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON MAY 16, 2002
We are furnishing you this proxy statement in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors to be used at the annual meeting and any adjournment thereof. The annual meeting will be held on May 16, 2002. We are first sending this proxy statement to our stockholders on or about April 9, 2002.
About The Company
We are an independent energy company engaged primarily in oil and natural gas exploration, development and production, acquisition of producing properties, transportation of oil and gas and processing of natural gas. We currently own oil and gas properties concentrated in five operating divisions:
. the Permian/Mid-Continent, Rocky Mountain and Gulf divisions including onshore properties in the continental United States and offshore properties primarily in the Gulf of Mexico;
. the Canadian division, which includes properties in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, primarily in Alberta and British Columbia, and frontier properties in the far north; and
. the International division, which includes properties in Azerbaijan, China and West Africa.
We are one of the top five public independent oil and gas companies based in the United States, as measured by oil and gas reserves. As of December 31, 2001, our estimated proved reserves were 1.6 billion barrels of oil equivalent, of which 56% were natural gas reserves and 44% were oil and natural gas liquids reserves.
On January 24, 2002, we completed the acquisition of Mitchell Energy & Development Corp. This acquisition increased the estimated proved reserves to 2.0 billion barrels of oil equivalent, of which 60% are natural gas reserves and 40% are oil and natural gas liquids reserves. The Mitchell acquisition also brings significant additional gas transportation and processing facilities to us. Our U.S. gas processing, transportation and marketing activities are managed by our newly created midstream operating division.
Since September 29, 1988, our common stock has been traded on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol "DVN." In addition, following the Northstar combination, a new class of common stock, which we call the exchangeable shares, began trading on The Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol "NSX." These shares are essentially equivalent to our common stock. However, because they are issued by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Northstar Energy Corporation, they qualify as a domestic Canadian investment for Canadian institutional stockholders. They are exchangeable at any time, on a one-for-one basis, for our common stock.
All references in this proxy statement to we, our, us, the company or Devon refer to Devon Energy Corporation including our predecessors and subsidiary corporations.

About The Meeting
Q: What am I voting on?
A: You are voting on one thing, the election of four directors (John A. Hill, William J. Johnson, Michael M. Kanovsky and Robert A. Mosbacher, Jr.).
Q: Who is entitled to vote?
A: Stockholders as of the close of business on March 19, 2002 (the record date). Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.
Q: How do I vote?
A: Instead of attending the meeting and casting your vote in person, you may either:
. Dial the toll-free number listed on the voting instruction form from the U.S. and Canada, enter your control number (found on your proxy card) and follow the voice prompts; or
. Go to the following website:
http://www.proxyvote.com, enter your control number (found on your proxy card) and follow the simple instructions on the screen; or
. Mark your selection on the enclosed proxy card, date and sign the card, and return the card in the enclosed envelope.
Q: If I vote by telephone or internet, do I need to return my proxy card?
A: No.
Q: What is the difference between voting via telephone or the internet or returning a proxy card versus voting in person?
A: Voting by proxy, regardless of whether it is via telephone or the internet or by returning your proxy card by mail, appoints J. Larry Nichols and Marian J. Moon as your proxies. They will be required to vote on the proposal exactly as you specified. However, if any other matter requiring a shareholder vote is properly raised at the meeting and you are not present to cast your vote, then Mr. Nichols and Ms. Moon are authorized to use their discretion to vote on the issues on your behalf.
Q: How does discretionary authority apply?
A: If you sign your proxy card, but do not make any selections, you give authority to Mr. Nichols and Ms. Moon to vote on the proposals and any other matter that may arise at the annual meeting.
Q: If I vote via telephone or the internet or by mailing my proxy card, may I still attend the meeting?
A: Yes.
Q: What if I want to change my vote?
A: You can revoke your vote at any time before the meeting.
Q: Is my vote confidential?
A: Yes, only Morrow & Co. Inc., our proxy solicitor, and certain employees of Devon will have access to your voting information. We will act as our own inspector of election. All comments will remain confidential, unless you ask that your name be disclosed.
Q: Who will count the votes?
A: ADP Investor Communication Services will tabulate the votes.
Q: What does it mean if I get more than one proxy card?
A: Your shares are probably registered differently or are in more than one account. Vote all proxy cards to ensure that all your shares are voted. Contact our transfer agent, EquiServe, Inc., to have your accounts registered in the same name and address.
Q: Will each stockholder in our household receive a Proxy Statement and Annual Report?
A: No. Only one proxy statement and annual report will be delivered to multiple stockholders
2

sharing an address unless you notify us to the contrary. However, any stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the proxy statement and annual report has been sent may request an additional copy of this proxy statement and annual report or future copies of proxy statements and annual reports by writing Devon Energy Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 20 North Broadway, Oklahoma City, OK 73102, janice.dobbs@dvn.com or calling (405) 235-3611.
Q: How many shares of Devon common stock are outstanding?
A: As of March 19, 2002, the record date, there were 156,126,700 shares of common stock outstanding, including exchangeable shares, each of which is entitled to one vote at the meeting.
Q: What if I hold exchangeable shares?
A: As of the close of business on March 19, 2002, the record date, there were 2,004,636 exchangeable shares outstanding. Each exchangeable share is entitled to one vote at the meeting. The document governing the voting of exchangeable share is the Voting and Exchange Trust Agreement dated December 10, 1998, as amended on August 17, 1999, which we call the voting agreement. Under the voting agreement, CIBC Mellon Trust Company, the trustee, is entitled to exercise certain voting rights on behalf of holders of the exchangeable shares. The trustee holds one share of our special voting stock, which we call the special voting share. The special voting share is entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of exchangeable shares outstanding from time to time that are held by persons other than Devon. Pursuant to the voting agreement, each holder of exchangeable shares, other than Devon, is entitled to give the trustee voting instructions for a number of votes equal to the number of that holder's exchangeable shares.
If you own exchangeable shares, we have sent you a voting direction card so that you may exercise your voting rights at the meeting. The trustee will cast votes at the meeting only as you direct on your voting direction card. If you do not mark and return your voting direction card the trustees will not cast any votes on your behalf.
If you wish to vote at the meeting but do not want the trustee to vote your shares, you may do one of the following:
. Contact the trustee and request that the trustee give a proxy to Devon management so they can vote on your behalf at the meeting; or
. Attend the meeting and vote in person.
You may revoke the voting direction card by delivering either a revocation or a later dated voting direction card to the trustee.
Q: What constitutes a quorum?
A: The common stock and the special voting share vote together as a single class. A majority of the votes represented by the common stock and the exchangeable shares, present in person or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum. If you vote by telephone or the internet or by returning your proxy card, you will be considered part of the quorum. The inspector of election will treat shares represented by a properly executed proxy as present at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining a quorum. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power for that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.
Q: How many votes will be required to approve a proposal?
A: Election of each director at the meeting will be by a plurality of votes cast at the meeting. Votes may be cast in favor of the election of each director or withheld. With respect to other matters, except as provided by law or our certificate of incorporation or bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting shares, present in person or by proxy, entitled to vote at the meeting is required to take any other action. Shares cannot be voted at the meeting unless the holder of record is present in person or by proxy.
3

Q: Can brokers who hold shares in street name vote those shares with respect to the election of directors if they have received no instructions?
A: We believe that brokers that are member firms of the New York Stock Exchange or NYSE, and who hold common stock in street name for customers, but have not received instructions from a beneficial owner, have the authority under the rules of the NYSE to vote those shares with respect to the election of directors. In Canada, registrants and their nominees may not exercise voting rights without instructions from a beneficial owner. Therefore, no votes with respect to the exchangeable shares will be cast without specific instructions to the trustee.
Q: How will you treat abstentions and broker non-votes?
A: We will (i) count abstentions and broker non-votes for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the meeting; (ii) treat abstentions as votes not cast but as shares represented at the meeting for determining results on actions requiring a majority vote; (iii) not consider broker non-votes for determining actions requiring a majority vote; and (iv) consider neither abstentions nor broker non-votes in determining results of plurality votes.
Q: Who pays the solicitation expenses?
A: We will bear the cost of solicitation of proxies. Proxies may be solicited by mail or personally by our directors, officers or regular employees, none of whom will receive additional compensation therefor. We have also retained Morrow & Co., Inc. to assist in solicitation of proxies for a fee of $4,500, plus reimbursement of certain expenses. Those holding shares of common stock of record for the benefit of others, or nominee holders, are being asked to distribute proxy soliciting materials to, and request voting instructions from, the beneficial owners of such shares. We will reimburse nominee holders for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.
Q: Where can I find the voting results of the meeting?
A: We will announce voting results at the meeting, and we will publish final results in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter of 2002. We will file that report with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You can get a copy by contacting either our investor relations department at
(405) 552-4570 or the Securities and Exchange Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330 or www.sec.gov.
Q: Will your independent accountants be available to respond to stockholder questions?
A: The board of directors, as recommended by the audit committee, has selected KPMG LLP to serve as our independent accountants for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. Representatives of KPMG LLP are expected to be present at the meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to stockholder questions.
Q: How does management intend to vote?
A: Our officers and directors own a total of 1,403,579 voting shares, or less than 1% of the total 156,126,700 voting shares entitled to be voted at the meeting, and intend to vote all of such shares in favor of the election of the four nominees for director named herein.
Q: Where can I reach you?
A: Our mailing address is:
20 North Broadway
Oklahoma City, OK 73102-8260
Our telephone number is:
(405) 235-3611

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Pursuant to provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, the board of directors has fixed the number of directors at 10. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide for three classes of directors, serving staggered three-year terms, with Class I having three directors, Class II having four directors and Class III having three directors. The board of directors has nominated John A. Hill, William J. Johnson, Michael M. Kanovsky and Robert A. Mosbacher, Jr. for re-election as directors for terms expiring at the annual meeting in the year 2005, and in each case until their successors are elected and qualified. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named. The four nominees are presently our directors whose terms expire at the meeting. Other directors who are remaining on the board of directors will continue in office in accordance with their previous elections until the expiration of their terms at the 2003 or 2004 annual meeting, as the case may be. The board of directors recommends a vote "FOR" each of the nominees for election to the board of directors.
It is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote proxies "FOR" the election of the four nominees. In the event that any of the nominees should fail to stand for election, the persons named in the proxy intend to vote for substitute nominees designated by the board of directors, unless the board of directors reduces the number of directors to be elected.

(1) Exercise Price is the closing price of common stock as reported by the American Stock Exchange or "AMEX" on the date of grant.
(2) The Grant Date Present Value is an estimation of the possible future value of the option based upon the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The following assumptions were used in the model: volatility (a measure of the historic variability of a stock price) - 42.2%; risk-free interest rate (the interest paid by zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options) - 3.8% per annum; annual dividend yield - 0.6%; and expected life of the options - five years from grant date. The option value estimated using this model does not necessarily represent the value to be realized by the named officers.
(3) These options were granted as of December 4, 2001. 20% of such grant was immediately vested and exercisable. An additional 20% of such grant becomes vested and exercisable on each of the next four anniversary dates of the original grant.

The exercise price of options granted under the 1997 Plan may not be less than the estimated fair market value of the stock on the date of grant (plus 10% if the grantee owns or controls more than 10% of the total voting stock of Devon prior to the grant). Options granted are exercisable during a period established for each grant, which period may not exceed 10 years from the date of grant. Under the 1997 Plan, the grantee must pay the exercise price in cash or in common stock, or a combination thereof, at the time the option is exercised. The 1997 Plan expires on March 25, 2007.
We have no other plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance to occur over a period longer than one fiscal year.
Retirement Plans. We have three applicable retirement plans, as follows:

Basic Plan       The Basic Plan is a qualified defined benefit retirement plan which provides benefits
                 based upon past and future employment service with Devon. Each eligible employee
                 who retires is entitled to receive annual retirement income, computed as a percentage of
                 "final average compensation" (which consists of the average of the highest three
                 consecutive years' salaries, wages, and bonuses out of the last 10 years), and credited
                 years of service up to 25 years. Contributions by employees are neither required nor
                 permitted under the Basic Plan. Benefits are computed based on straight-life annuity
                 amounts and are reduced by Social Security benefits. Benefits under the Basic Plan are
                 reduced for certain highly compensated employees in order to comply with certain
                 requirements of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

                 The following table sets forth the credited years of service as of December 31, 2001
                 under Devon's Basic Plan for each of the five individuals named in the Summary
                 Compensation Table.

                                                                     Credited Years

Benefit          The Benefit Restoration Plan is a non-qualified retirement benefit plan, the purpose of
Restoration Plan which is to restore retirement benefits for certain selected key management and highly
                 compensated employees because their annual compensation is greater than the
                 maximum annual compensation that can be considered in computing their benefits
                 under the Basic Plan. An employee must be selected by the Compensation and Stock
                 Option Committee in order to be eligible for participation in the Benefit Restoration
                 Plan. All other provisions of the Benefit Restoration Plan mirror those of the Basic
                 Plan. All of the five individuals named in the Summary Compensation Table have been
                 selected to participate in the Benefit Restoration Plan. The Benefit Restoration Plan has
                 been partially funded through a rabbi trust arrangement.	

18

Supplemental    The Supplemental Retirement Plan is another non-qualified retirement plan for a small
Retirement Plan group of executives, the purpose of which is to provide additional retirement benefits
                for long-service executives. The plan vests after 10 years of service, and provides
                retirement income equal to 65% of the executive's final average compensation,
                multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is his credited years of service (not to
                exceed 20) and the denominator of which is 20 (or less, if so determined by the
                Compensation and Stock Option Committee), less any offset amounts. Offset amounts
                are (i) benefits payable under the Basic Plan, (ii) benefits payable under the Benefit
                Restoration Plan, (iii) benefits due to the participant under Social Security, and (iv) any
                benefits paid to the participant under the company's long-term disability plan.

                In general, benefits will be paid under the Supplemental Retirement Plan when the
                participant retires from the company. However, in the event that the executive's
                employment with the company is terminated under conditions that qualify him or her to
                a severance benefit under the Employment Agreement (see below), then the executive
                will be 100% vested in his or her benefit and entitled to receive the actuarial equivalent
                of such benefit earned as of the date of termination of employment. If the executive is
                terminated within two years following a "change of control," his or her benefit will be
                paid in a single lump sum payment. Otherwise, the benefit will be paid monthly for the
                life of the executive. "Change of control" is defined as the date on which one of the
                following occurs: (i) an entity or group acquires 30% or more of the company's
                outstanding voting securities, (ii) the incumbent board ceases to constitute at least a
                majority of the company's board, or (iii) a merger, reorganization or consolidation is
                consummated, after shareholder approval, unless (a) substantially all of the
                shareholders prior to the transaction continue to own more than 50% of the voting
                power after the transaction, (b) no person owns 30% or more of the combined voting
                securities, and (c) the incumbent board constitutes at least a majority of the board after
                the transaction. The Supplemental Retirement Plan is also partially funded through a
                rabbi trust arrangement.	

The following table shows the estimated aggregate annual retirement benefits payable under the Basic Plan, the Benefit Restoration Plan and the Supplemental Retirement Plan to the participants therein, including the five individuals named in the Summary Compensation Table. The amount presented assumes a normal retirement in 2001 at age 65.

Employment Agreements
A small number of senior executives, including the five individuals named in the Summary Compensation Table, are entitled to certain additional compensation under the following events:
(1) employment with the company is involuntarily terminated other than for "Cause;" or
(2) employee voluntarily terminates for "Good Reason", as those terms are defined in each of the officers' employment agreements.
In either case the payment due to the officer would be equal to three times their annual compensation. In addition, the Employment Agreement provides for the officer to receive the same basic health and welfare benefits that he or she would otherwise be entitled to receive if he or she were an employee of the company for three years after termination. If the executive is terminated within two years of a "change in control," he or she is also entitled to an additional three years of service credit and age in determining eligibility for retiree medical and supplemental retirement benefits. "Change of control" is defined in the Employment Agreements the same as in the Retirement Plans described above.
Director Compensation
Non-management directors of Devon receive:
. an annual retainer of $30,000, payable quarterly.
. $2,000 for each Board meeting attended. Directors participating in a telephonic meeting receive a fee of $1,000.
. an additional $3,000 per year for serving as chairmen of a standing committee of the Board.
. $2,000 for each committee meeting attended that requires separate travel.
. $1,000 for each committee meeting that does not require separate travel.
Non-management directors are eligible to receive stock options in addition to their cash remuneration. Such directors are eligible to receive stock option grants of up to 3,000 shares immediately after each annual meeting of stockholders at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on that date. Any unexercised options will expire 10 years after the date of grant. The Compensation and Stock Option Committee, which awards options to non-management directors, may elect to grant awards that are less than the 3,000 shares maximum. However, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee has no other discretion regarding the award of stock options to non-management directors. The directors were eligible to receive stock options beginning in 1997. The following table sets forth information concerning options granted to non-management directors in 2001:

(1) The options were granted on May 17, 2001, and immediately became vested and exercisable.
(2) Exercise price is the fair market value on the date of grant, which is the closing price of common stock on the AMEX.
(3) The grant date present value is an estimation of the possible future value of the option grant based upon the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The following assumptions were used in the model: volatility (a measure of the historic variability of a stock price) - 42.2%; risk-free interest rate (the interest paid by zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options) - 4.9% per annum; annual dividend yield - 0.6%; and expected life of the options - five years from grant date. The option value estimated using this model does not necessarily represent the value to be realized by the named directors.
COMPENSATION AND STOCK OPTION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the board of directors or the "Committee" establishes the general compensation policies of the company. The Committee meets in November or December of each year to establish specific compensation levels for the CEO and to review the executive officers' compensation in general. (The compensation for executive officers other than the CEO is determined by the CEO.)
The Committee's goal in setting executive compensation is to motivate, reward and retain management talent who support the company's goals of increasing absolute and per share value for stockholders. This goal is carried out through awards of base salary, annual cash bonuses and stock options.
The Committee generally believes that the total cash compensation of its CEO and other executive officers should be similar to the total cash compensation of similarly situated executives of peer group public companies within the oil and gas industry. Further, a significant portion of the complete compensation package should be tied to the company's success in achieving long-term growth in per share earnings, cash flow, reserves, production and stock price.
21

Base Salary. A competitive base salary is considered vital to support the continuity of management and is consistent with the long-term nature of the oil and gas business. The Committee believes that the base salaries of the executive officers should be similar to the base salaries of executive officers of similar companies within the oil and gas industry. Therefore, no performance criteria are applied to the base salary portion of the total compensation. Performance of the company versus its peers is, however, given significant weight in the cash bonus and stock option portions of compensation.
The CEO's base salary for 2001 was based upon information available to the Committee at its November 2000 meeting. At that meeting the Committee reviewed the results of a group of nine companies to which the Committee believed Devon should be compared. This peer group included companies that are similar to Devon in total revenues, balance sheet ratios, oil and gas reserves and overall oil and gas operations. (The industry group index in the Performance Graph included in this proxy statement includes, but is not limited to, the companies used for this compensation analysis. In its analysis, the Committee specifically focused on those companies that are most similar to Devon in size, financial structure and operations, believing that the most direct comparisons would not necessarily include all of the more than 200 companies included in the industry group index used for the performance graph.)
A review of the base salaries for the highest-paid executive at each of these peer companies revealed that the 2000 base salary of Devon's CEO was at the low end of the range of all base salaries in the group, and only 77% of the average base salary for the group. As a result of this finding, the Committee increased the CEO's base salary for 2001 by 8% to $650,000.
The Committee advised the CEO that a similar procedure, using both publicly-available and private survey data, should be used in evaluating the base salaries of the other executive officers of the company.
Cash Bonuses. The Committee believes that the officers' cash bonuses should be tied to Devon's success in meeting its corporate goals and budgets and in achieving growth in comparison to those of the company's industry peers and to the individual officers' contribution to such success. Cash bonuses for calendar year 2001 were set at the December 2001 Committee meeting. In setting the cash bonus for the CEO for the calendar year 2001, the Committee reviewed the performance of the peer group of seven oil and gas companies. (Two companies were eliminated from the group due to their mergers into other companies.)
The Committee reviewed Devon's growth over the last one, three and five years, compared with the peer group average on a number of different measures, notably, change in earnings per share, cash flow per share, reserves per share and stock price. Devon's growth in all of these measures exceeded that of the peer group average for the years reviewed, except stock price performance for the last year. The Committee considered the CEO's efforts in successfully negotiating both the Mitchell and Anderson mergers and completing the Anderson transaction. The Committee also noted that the Mitchell merger and announced property sales had yet to be completed. In light of this analysis, the Committee awarded the CEO a cash bonus of $1,000,000. This award resulted in his total cash compensation for 2001 being 54% of the average total 2000 cash compensation for the highest-paid executives of the companies in the peer group.
The Committee advised the CEO that similar criteria should be used in establishing cash bonuses for the other executive officers.
Stock Options. The Committee desires to reward key management and professional employees for long-term strategic management practices and enhancement of stockholder value by awarding stock options. Stock options are granted at an option price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The grant of these options and the optionees' holdings of unexercised options and/or ownership of exercised option shares is designed to closely align the interests of the executive officers with those of the stockholders. The ultimate value of the stock options will depend on the continued success of the company, thereby creating a continuing incentive for executive officers to perform long after the initial grant.
The Committee considered stock option grants in connection with 2001 company performance at its meeting in December 2001. Stock options were awarded to the CEO and other executive officers at this meeting.
22

The Committee has established stock option targets for each participating level of responsibility within the company. Corporate financial performance may be considered by the Committee in determining the number of stock options granted. The Committee wants to encourage executives to maintain ownership of company stock and/or unexercised options. Although there are no specific ownership criteria used in awarding options, long-term ownership is viewed favorably. The Committee noted that Devon's senior officers as a group still retained 82% of all options (both vested and unvested) that had been granted to them through November 2001.
The Committee generally seeks to award no more than 2% of the outstanding shares in any one year, and further desires to keep the total number of shares under option and available for option to less than 10% of the total shares outstanding. As of November 30, 2001, and pro forma for the then-pending merger with Mitchell, there were 9,958,985 shares under option (including options on 6,416,540 shares granted by Northstar, PennzEnergy, Santa Fe Snyder and Mitchell which were assumed by Devon) and 6,259,035 shares available for option, which were 5.6% and 3.7%, respectively, of total shares on a fully diluted basis.
Policy on Deductibility of Compensation. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits the tax deduction to $1 million for compensation paid to any one executive officer, unless certain requirements are met. The Committee may award compensation which is not deductible under Section 162(m) if it believes that such awards would be in the best interest of the company or its stockholders.
Submission of Compensation Plans to Stockholders. The Committee has no present intention of submitting any compensation plans to the stockholders for approval that would result in the issuance of more than 5% of the company's outstanding common stock.
We believe that the company has an appropriate compensation structure that properly rewards and motivates its executive officers to build stockholder value.

Compensation Committee Interlocks
The compensation committee is composed of four independent, non-employee directors, Messrs. Gavrin, Gellert, Hill and Johnson. These directors have no interlocking relationships as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE
The board of directors maintains an audit committee comprised of three of our outside directors. The board of directors and the audit committee believe that the audit committee's current member composition satisfies the rules of the AMEX that govern audit committee composition, including the requirement that audit committee members all be "independent directors" as that term is defined by AMEX Listing Standards, Policies and Requirements--Section 121(A).
The audit committee oversees our financial reporting process on behalf of the board of directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements and the establishment and maintenance of the system of internal controls. This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of objectives in the areas of reliability of financial reporting, effectiveness and efficiency of operations and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In fulfilling its oversight
23

responsibilities, the committee reviewed the audited financial statements in the annual report with management including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. The board has adopted a written charter of the audit committee which was included in our proxy statement for our 2001 annual meeting.
In fulfilling its duties in the 2001 fiscal year, the audit committee has done each of the following:
. reviewed with the independent auditors, who are responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of our audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, their judgments as to the quality, not just the acceptability, of our accounting principles and other matters;
. discussed with the independent auditors other matters under generally accepted auditing standards, including Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communications with Audit Committee;
. discussed with the independent auditors the auditors' independence from management and us, including the matters in the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1;

Under the terms of its charter, the audit committee approves fees paid by Devon to our independent auditors. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, we paid the following fees to KPMG LLP:

Audit fees, excluding audit related.................... $703,000
                                                        ========
Financial information systems design and implementation $     --
                                                        ========
All other fees:
   Audit related fees.................................. $366,204
   Other non-audit services............................  318,960
                                                        --------
Total all other fees................................... $685,164
                                                        ========	

Audit related fees consisted principally of audits of financial statements of employee benefit plans and certain affiliates and subsidiaries, reviews of registration statements and offering memorandums and issuance of consents to use the auditors' reports in registration statements, and issuances of letters to underwriters and first purchasers. Other non-audit services consisted of tax compliance and tax consulting fees. The audit committee considered whether the provision of such services is compatible with maintaining KPMG LLP's independence.
In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee recommended to the board of directors, and the board has approved, that the audited financial statements be included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The audit committee also recommended to the board of directors, and the board has approved, KPMG LLP as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002.
