Exhibit 1.1

BP p.l.c.
Fourth quarter interim dividend for 2023
Payments of dividends in sterling
On 6 February 2024, the Directors of BP p.l.c. announced that the
interim dividend for the fourth quarter of 2023 would be US$0.07270
per ordinary share (US$0.4362 per ADS). This interim dividend is to
be paid on 28 March 2024 to shareholders on the share register on
16 February 2024. The dividend is payable in cash in sterling
to holders of ordinary shares and in US dollars to holders of ADSs.
The board has decided not to offer a scrip dividend alternative in
respect of the fourth quarter 2023 dividend. Dividend reinvestment
plans have been made available for this dividend for ordinary
shareholders and ADS holders (subject to certain exceptions) to
receive additional bp shares.
Sterling dividends payable in cash will be converted from
US dollars at an average of the market exchange rate over the
three dealing days between 6 March and 8 March 2024 (£1 =
US$1.27718). Accordingly, the amount of sterling dividend payable
in cash on 28 March 2024 will be:
5.6922 pence per share.
Details of the fourth quarter dividend and timetable are available
at bp.com/dividends.
