Exhibit 1.1

BP p.l.c.
Fourth quarter interim dividend for 2022
Payments of dividends in sterling
On 7 February 2023, the Directors of BP p.l.c. announced that the
interim dividend for the fourth quarter of 2022 would be US$0.06610
per ordinary share (US$0.3966 per ADS). This interim dividend is to
be paid on 31 March 2023 to shareholders on the share register on
17 February 2023. 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 2022 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 8 and 10 March 2023 (£1 =
US$1.19084). Accordingly, the amount of sterling dividend payable
in cash on 31 March 2023 will be:
5.5507 pence per share.
Details of the fourth quarter dividend and timetable are available
at bp.com/dividends.
