Fourth quarter interim dividend for 2021
Payments of dividends in sterling
On 8 February 2022, the Directors of BP p.l.c. announced that the
interim dividend for the fourth quarter 2021 would be US$0.0546 per
ordinary share (US$0.3276 per ADS). This interim dividend is
to be paid on 25 March 2022 to shareholders on the share register
on 18 February 2022. 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 2021
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 9 and 11 March 2022 (£1 =
US$1.31266). Accordingly, the amount of sterling dividend payable
in cash on 25 March 2022 will be:
4.1595 pence per share.
Details of the fourth quarter dividend and timetable are available
at bp.com/dividends.
