BP p.l.c. Launches Cash Tender Offer for Up to $1 Billion Aggregate Principal Amount of One

Series of USD Notes

BP p.l.c. (“BP”) (NYSE: BP) (LSE: BP) today announced the commencement of a cash tender offer by its wholly-owned subsidiary BP Capital Markets p.l.c. (the “Offeror”) to purchase for cash any validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted Notes up to an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000,000 (the “Offer Cap”) of Notes issued by the Offeror (the “Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer to purchase dated February 26, 2024 (the “Offer to Purchase”). Terms not defined in this announcement have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Copies of the Offer to Purchase will be available to holders of the Notes (each, a “Holder” and collectively, the “Holders”) through the Tender and Information Agent, D.F. King & Co., Inc. by calling +1 (877) 896-3192 (toll free) or +1 (212) 269-5550 (for banks and brokers).

The Offeror is offering to purchase the Notes in an aggregate principal amount up to the Offer Cap specified in the table below from Holders. Notes purchased in the Tender Offer will be retired and cancelled. Subject to applicable law, the Offeror reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Offer Cap in respect of the Tender Offer at any time, which could result in the Offeror purchasing a greater or lower aggregate principal amount of Notes in the Tender Offer.

The following table sets forth certain information relating to the pricing for the Tender Offer.

Up to the Offer Cap of the Notes^(a)

Listed Below

Title of Notes(b)	CUSIP / ISIN	Outstanding Principal Amount		Offer Cap		Total Consideration(c)
$2,500,000,000 4.375% Perpetual Subordinated Non-Call 5.25 Fixed Rate Reset Notes	05565Q DU9 /US05565QDU94	$	2,500,000,000	$	1,000,000,000	$	990.00

(a) The Tender Offer is subject to an Offer Cap equal to an aggregate principal amount of up to $1,000,000,000 of the Notes, subject to the terms and conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.

(b) The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by BP p.l.c. (“BP” or the “Guarantor”).

(c) Total Consideration includes an Early Tender Payment (as defined below) of $30 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time (as defined below) and accepted for purchase.

The Tender Offer for the Notes will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, March 25, 2024 (the “Expiration Time”), or any other date and time to which the Offeror extends the applicable Tender Offer. Holders must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Friday, March 8, 2024 (such time, the “Early Tender Time” and such Notes, the “Early Tender Notes”), to be eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below) which includes an amount in cash (the “Early Tender Payment”) equal to the applicable amount set forth in note (c) to the table above plus accrued interest. If Holders validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Time but prior to or at the applicable Expiration Time, Holders will only be eligible to receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration plus accrued interest.

Notes tendered may be withdrawn at or prior to, but not after, 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on Friday, March 8, 2024 (such date and time, as it may be extended with respect to the Notes, the “Withdrawal Deadline”). The Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, including the completion by the Offeror of a public offering of new debt securities that closes no later than the Expiration Time on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Offeror, as described in the Offer to Purchase. The Offeror reserves the option to, but is under no obligation to, accept for purchase the Early Tender Notes promptly after the Early Tender Time (the date of payment for such Notes, the “Early Settlement Date”). The Offeror will announce promptly after the Early Tender Time if it intends to exercise its right to have an Early Settlement Date.

If the Offer Cap is reached at the Early Tender Time, then no Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time will be purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer, unless the Offeror increases the Offer Cap. If the aggregate principal amount of all validly tendered Notes is greater than the Offer Cap, then the Tender Offer will be oversubscribed and if the Offeror accepts Notes in the Tender Offer, any Notes accepted for purchase will be accepted for tender on a prorated basis, with Early Tender Notes receiving priority, as more fully described in the Offer to Purchase.

The Offeror will only accept for purchase Notes up to an aggregate principal amount that will not exceed the Offer Cap.

The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon the tender of any minimum principal amount of the Notes (subject to the Authorized Denominations). Any Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn in the Tender Offer and accepted for purchase will be accepted for purchase by the Offeror based on the Offer Cap, as more fully described in the Offer to Purchase.

The “Total Consideration” per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be $990.00.

Holders of Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Time and that are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Total Consideration.

Holders of Notes that are validly tendered after the Early Tender Time but prior to or at the Expiration Time and that are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment. Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment is referred to as the “Tender Offer Consideration.”
