BP’s loss for the second quarter and half year was $1,419 million and $2,002 million respectively, compared with a loss of $5,823 million and $3,221 million for the same periods a year ago. Replacement cost (RC) loss for the second quarter was $2,247 million, compared with a loss of $6,266 million a year ago. After adjusting for a net charge for non-operating items of $2,819 million and net unfavourable fair value accounting effects of $148 million (both on a post-tax basis), underlying RC profit for the second quarter was $720 million, compared with $1,313 million for the same period in 2015. For the half year, RC loss was $2,732 million, compared with a loss of $4,163 million a year ago. After adjusting for a net charge for non-operating items of $3,597 million and net unfavourable fair value accounting effects of $387 million (both on a post-tax basis), underlying RC profit for the half year was $1,252 million, compared with $3,890 million for the same period in 2015. The lower result arises mainly due to the impact of lower oil and gas realizations on the Upstream result. Non-operating items include a restructuring charge of $68 million for the quarter and $414 million for the half year. Cumulative restructuring charges from the beginning of the fourth quarter 2014 totalled $1.9 billion by the end of the second quarter 2016.

•

All amounts, including finance costs, relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill have been treated as non-operating items, with a net pre-tax charge of $5,229 million for the second quarter and $6,146 million for the half year. As announced on 14 July 2016, following significant progress in resolving outstanding claims arising from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon accident and oil spill, a reliable estimate has now been determined for all remaining material liabilities arising from the incident, and a charge has been recorded this quarter. For further information on the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and its consequences see page 11 and Note 2 on page 17. See also Legal proceedings on page 38.

•

Net cash provided by operating activities for the second quarter and half year was $3.9 billion and $5.8 billion respectively, compared with $6.3 billion and $8.1 billion for the same periods in 2015.

•

Gross debt at 30 June 2016 was $55.7 billion compared with $57.1 billion a year ago. The ratio of gross debt to gross debt plus equity at 30 June 2016 was 37.2%, compared with 34.7% a year ago. Net debt* at 30 June 2016 was $30.9 billion, compared with $24.8 billion a year ago. The net debt ratio* at 30 June 2016 was 24.7%, compared with 18.8% a year ago. Net debt and the net debt ratio are non-GAAP measures. See page 24 for more information.

•

Capital expenditure on an accruals basis* for the second quarter was $4.2 billion, of which organic capital expenditure* was $3.9 billion, compared with $4.7 billion for the same period in 2015, of which organic capital expenditure was $4.5 billion. For the half year, capital expenditure on an accruals basis was $8.1 billion, of which organic capital expenditure was $7.9 billion, compared with $9.1 billion for the same period in 2015, of which organic capital expenditure was $8.9 billion. See page 31 for further information.

•

Disposal proceeds, as per the cash flow statement, were $0.4 billion for the second quarter and $1.6 billion for the half year, compared with $0.5 billion and $2.3 billion for the same periods in 2015. In addition, $0.3 billion was received in the second quarter in relation to the sale of approximately 11.5% from our shareholding in Castrol India Limited.

The effective tax rate (ETR) on the loss for the second quarter and half year was 59% and 54% respectively, compared with 33% and 51% for the same periods in 2015. The ETR on RC loss for the second quarter and half year was 51% and 49% respectively, compared with 33% and 47% for the same periods in 2015. Further to recording a charge for all remaining material liabilities relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, the overall tax position was reviewed and the tax credit for the quarter reflects tax on the charge taken and other positive tax adjustments, all of which have been treated as non-operating items. Adjusting for non-operating items, fair value accounting effects and a one-off adjustment as a result of the reduction in the rate of the UK North Sea supplementary charge in the first quarter 2015, the underlying ETR in the second quarter and half year was 21% and 20% respectively, compared with 35% and 28% for the same periods in 2015. The underlying ETR for the half year is lower than a year ago mainly due to changes in the mix of profits and foreign exchange effects.

Financial results

Sales and other operating revenues for the second quarter and half year were $8 billion and $16 billion respectively, compared with $11 billion and $23 billion for the corresponding periods in 2015. For the second quarter, revenues were lower mainly due to lower realizations and lower gas marketing and trading revenues. For the half year, the reduction was mainly due to lower realizations and lower gas marketing and trading revenues, partially offset by higher volumes.

The replacement cost loss before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was $109 million and $1,314 million respectively, compared with a profit of $228 million and $600 million for the same periods in 2015. The second quarter and half year included a net non-operating gain of $7 million and a charge of $348 million respectively, compared with a net non-operating charge of $236 million and $478 million for the same periods a year ago. Fair value accounting effects in the second quarter and half year had an unfavourable impact of $145 million and $248 million respectively, compared with an unfavourable impact of $30 million and $20 million in the same periods of 2015.

After adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, the underlying replacement cost result before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was a profit of $29 million and a loss of $718 million respectively, compared with a profit of $494 million and $1,098 million for the same periods in 2015. The result for the second quarter and half year reflected lower liquids and gas realizations partly offset by lower costs reflecting the benefits of simplification and efficiency activities, lower rig cancellation costs, lower exploration write-offs, and lower depreciation, depletion and amortization expense.

Production

Production for the quarter was 2,090mboe/d, 1.0% lower than the second quarter of 2015. Underlying production* for the quarter increased by 1.5% mainly due to lower seasonal turnaround activity. For the first half, production was 2,259mboe/d, 2.3% higher than in the same period of 2015. First-half underlying production was broadly flat compared to first half 2015.

Key events

On 16 May BP announced it has doubled its interest in the Culzean development in the UK Central North Sea to 32%, following its acquisition of an additional interest from JX Nippon.

On 24 May BP and the State Oil Company of the Republic of Azerbaijan signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly explore potential prospects in Block D230 in the North Absheron basin in the Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea.

On 25 May BP announced the start-up of a major water injection project at its Thunder Horse platform in the US Gulf of Mexico. The project will increase recovery of oil and natural gas from one of the field’s three main reservoirs.

On 9 June BP announced a gas discovery from the Baltim SW-1 exploration well in the Baltim South Development lease (BP 50% and Eni 50%, operator) in the East Nile Delta.

On 10 June BP and Det norske oljeselskap announced the creation of Aker BP ASA, an independent oil and gas company. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, the BP Norge and Det norske businesses will combine and be renamed Aker BP ASA which will be independently operated and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange. Aker BP will be owned by current Det norske shareholder Aker (40%), other Det norske shareholders (30%) and BP (30%).

On 17 June BP and Rosneft signed final binding agreements, subject to regulatory approval, to create a new joint venture, Yermak Neftegaz LLC (Rosneft 51% and BP 49%). The joint venture will conduct onshore exploration within two Areas of Mutual Interest (AMIs) in the West Siberian and Yenisey-Khatanga basins in the Russian Federation, which cover a combined area of about 260,000 square kilometres.

On 20 June BP announced that together with the Egyptian Natural Gas Holding Company (EGAS), it has sanctioned development of the Atoll Phase One project, an early production scheme that will bring gas to the Egyptian domestic market, due to start in the first half of 2018. BP has a 100% interest in the concession.

In July BP, on behalf of Tangguh production-sharing agreement* (PSA) partners, announced the final investment decision has been approved for the development of the Tangguh expansion project in the Papua Barat province of Indonesia. The project will add a third LNG process train (Train 3), two offshore platforms, 13 new production wells, an expanded LNG loading facility, and supporting infrastructure.

This builds on the progress announced in our first-quarter results, which comprised the following: BP acquired interests in exploration licences in the Flemish Pass Basin offshore of Newfoundland, Canada; BP was awarded acreage in Norway at Skarv with partners Statoil, PGNiG and E.ON; BP and Oman Oil signed a heads of agreement with the government of the Sultanate of Oman, in relation to block 61; In Salah Gas, a Sonatrach, BP and Statoil joint venture, started up its Southern Fields project in Algeria; an exploration discovery was announced on the Nooros East prospect in Egypt, by the operator Eni who has tied it back for production; BP signed a framework agreement with Kuwait Petroleum Corporation to enhance

Upstream

recovery of existing oil and gas resources and explore possible other joint opportunities; BP and China National Petroleum Corporation signed a PSA for shale gas exploration, development and production in China; BP completed evaluation of the Kepler 3 discovery in the Gulf of Mexico with the aim to start production later this year; the Point Thomson project in Alaska, US, began production.

Outlook

Looking ahead, we expect third-quarter reported production to be lower than the second quarter due to seasonal turnaround and maintenance activities and the impact of the plant outage at the Enterprise Pascagoula gas processing plant in the Gulf of Mexico.

The commentary above contains forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the cautionary statement on page 40.

Financial results

Sales and other operating revenues for the second quarter and half year were $43 billion and $77 billion respectively, compared with $57 billion and $106 billion for the corresponding periods in 2015. The reduction in the second quarter and half year was mainly due to lower oil prices, partially offset by higher sales volumes.

The replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the second quarter and first half was $1,405 million and $3,285 million respectively, compared with $1,628 million and $3,711 million for the same periods in 2015.

The 2016 results include a net non-operating charge of $37 million for the second quarter and a net non-operating gain of $249 million for the half year, compared with a net non-operating charge of $122 million and $85 million for the same periods in 2015 (see pages 9 and 32 for further information on non-operating items). Fair value accounting effects had unfavourable impacts of $71 million for the second quarter and $290 million for the half year, compared with unfavourable impacts of $117 million and $229 million in the same periods of 2015.

After adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, the underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was $1,513 million and $3,326 million respectively, compared with $1,867 million and $4,025 million for the same periods in 2015.

Replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fuels, lubricants and petrochemicals businesses is set out on page 9.

Fuels business

The fuels business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $1,011 million for the second quarter and $2,327 million for the half year, compared with $1,394 million and $3,190 million for the same periods in 2015. The results for the quarter and half year reflect a significantly weaker refining environment, partially offset by lower costs from simplification and efficiency programmes, increased fuels marketing performance and strong refining operations. The half-year result was also impacted by a lower contribution from supply and trading, particularly in the first quarter.

During the first quarter of 2016 we completed the divestment of several non-strategic midstream assets in the US and Europe.

Lubricants business

The lubricants business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $412 million for the quarter and $796 million for the half year, compared with $397 million and $742 million for the same periods in 2015. The quarter and half-year results reflect continued strong performance in growth markets and premium brands and lower costs from simplification and efficiency programmes. These factors contributed to a growth of more than 10% in the half-year underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax, which was partially offset by adverse foreign exchange impacts.

During the second quarter of 2016 we sold approximately 11.5% from our 71% shareholding in Castrol India Limited.

Petrochemicals business

The petrochemicals business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $90 million for the second quarter and $203 million for the half year, compared with $76 million and $93 million for the same periods in 2015. The result for the half year reflects stronger operations and margin optimization in a petrochemicals environment similar to the same period in 2015.

During the first quarter of 2016 we completed the sale of our Decatur petrochemicals complex in Alabama, US.

Outlook

In the third quarter we expect turnaround activity to remain high, at a similar level to the second quarter, and that industry refining margins will continue to be under significant pressure.

Replacement cost profit before interest and tax and underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was $246 million and $312 million respectively, compared with $510 million and $693 million for the same periods in 2015. There were no non-operating items in the second quarter and half year of either year.

Compared with the same period last year, the result for the second quarter was primarily affected by lower oil prices. For the half year, the result was primarily affected by lower oil prices, partially offset by favourable foreign exchange effects.

BP’s two nominees, Bob Dudley and Guillermo Quintero, were re-elected to Rosneft’s board by the annual general meeting (AGM) on 15 June. The AGM also adopted a resolution to pay dividends of 11.75 roubles per ordinary share. BP expects to receive a dividend in relation to the 2015 annual results of approximately $335 million, after the deduction of withholding tax and subject to fluctuations in foreign exchange.

(a)	The operational and financial information of the Rosneft segment for the second quarter and first half of the year is based on preliminary operational and financial results of Rosneft for the six months ended 30 June 2016. Actual results may differ from these amounts.

(b)

The Rosneft segment result includes equity-accounted earnings arising from BP’s 19.75% shareholding in Rosneft as adjusted for the accounting required under IFRS relating to BP’s purchase of its interest in Rosneft and the amortization of the deferred gain relating to the disposal of BP’s interest in TNK-BP. These adjustments have increased the reported profit before interest and tax for the second quarter and first half 2016, as shown in the table above, compared with the equivalent amount in Russian roubles that we expect Rosneft to report in its own financial statements under IFRS. BP’s share of Rosneft’s profit before interest and tax for each year-to-date period is calculated by translating the amounts reported in Russian roubles into US dollars using the average exchange rate for the year to date. BP’s share of Rosneft’s earnings after finance costs, taxation and non-controlling interests, as adjusted, is included in the BP group income statement within profit before interest and taxation.

Financial results

The replacement cost loss before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was $5,525 million and $6,599 million respectively, compared with $11,202 million and $11,833 million for the same periods in 2015.

The second-quarter result included a net non-operating charge of $5,149 million, primarily relating to costs for the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, compared with a net charge of $10,801 million a year ago. Following significant progress in resolving outstanding claims, a reliable estimate has now been determined for all remaining material liabilities associated with the incident. The second-quarter charge reflects the recognition of additional provisions for these claims, including the cost of all remaining business economic loss claims under the 2012 Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (PSC) settlement and the cost of resolving economic loss and property damage claims from individuals and businesses that either opted out of the PSC settlement and/or were excluded from that settlement. The second-quarter 2015 charge reflected a $9.8-billion charge associated with the settlement agreements signed in July 2015. For further information see Note 2 on page 17. For the half year, the net non-operating charge was $6,045 million, compared with a net non-operating charge of $11,142 million a year ago.

After adjusting for non-operating items, the underlying replacement cost loss before interest and tax for the second quarter and half year was $376 million and $554 million respectively, compared with $401 million and $691 million for the same periods in 2015. The half-year result reflects lower corporate costs and favourable foreign exchange impacts.

Gulf of Mexico oil spill

As previously disclosed, on 4 April 2016 the federal district court approved the Consent Decree between the United States, the Gulf states and BP which resolves all United States and Gulf states’ natural resource damages claims and Clean Water Act penalty claims, and certain other claims.

For further information see Note 2 on page 17 and Legal proceedings on page 38.

Biofuels

The net ethanol-equivalent production (which includes ethanol and sugar) for the second quarter was 283 million litres, compared with 247 million litres for the same period 2015.

Wind

Net wind generation capacity*(a) was 1,477MW at 30 June 2016 compared with 1,588MW at 30 June 2015. BP’s net share of wind generation for the second quarter and half year was 1,060GWh and 2,407GWh respectively, compared with 1,150GWh and 2,277GWh for the same periods in 2015.

(a)	Capacity figures include 23MW in the Netherlands managed by our Downstream segment at 30 June 2016, and 32MW at 30 June 2015.

1.	Basis of preparation

The interim financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 ‘Interim Financial Reporting’.

The results for the interim periods are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for each period. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended 31 December 2015 included in the BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2015.

The directors have made an assessment of the group’s ability to continue as a going concern and consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing these interim financial statements.

BP prepares its consolidated financial statements included within BP Annual Report and Form 20-F on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), IFRS as adopted by the European Union (EU) and in accordance with the provisions of the UK Companies Act 2006. IFRS as adopted by the EU differs in certain respects from IFRS as issued by the IASB. The differences have no impact on the group’s consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

The financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies expected to be used in preparing BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2016, which do not differ significantly from those used in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2015.

In BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2015 we disclosed a significant estimate or judgement relating to provisions arising from the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in 2010. At that time, no reliable estimate could be made of any business economic loss (BEL) claims under the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (PSC) settlement that were not yet processed or processed but not yet paid, except where an eligibility notice had been issued and was not subject to appeal by BP within the Deepwater Horizon Court Supervised Settlement Program claims facility (DHCSSP). A reliable estimate could also not be made in relation to securities-related litigation and other litigation, including economic loss and property damage claims from parties excluded from and/or who opted out of the PSC settlement. No amounts were provided for these items and they were disclosed as contingent liabilities.

As a result of developments during the second quarter of 2016 sufficient information now exists in order to make a reliable estimate of the amounts that BP will pay relating to all outstanding BEL claims under the DHCSSP, securities class actions and economic loss and property damage claims from parties who were excluded from and/or opted out of the PSC settlement. Liabilities have therefore been recognized in the financial statements for these items. See Note 2 for further information.

2.	Gulf of Mexico oil spill

(a) Overview

The information presented in this note should be read in conjunction with BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2015 – Financial statements – Note 2 and Legal proceedings on page 237 and on page 38 of this report.

Following significant progress in resolving outstanding claims arising from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon accident and oil spill, a reliable estimate has now been determined for all remaining material liabilities arising from the incident, and an additional charge has been recorded this quarter.

The group income statement includes a pre-tax charge of $5,229 million for the second quarter and $6,146 million for the first half 2016 in relation to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. The cumulative pre-tax income statement charge since the incident, in April 2010, amounts to $61,597 million. It is now possible to reliably estimate the cost of resolving all outstanding business economic loss claims under the Plaintiffs’ Steering Committee (PSC) settlement and the cost of resolving economic loss and property damage claims from individuals and businesses that either opted out of the PSC settlement and/or were excluded from that settlement. The second-quarter increase in provisions of $4,935 million is primarily attributable to the recognition of additional provisions for these claims. The remainder of the income statement charge for the second quarter relates predominantly to the cost of the securities claims settlement with the certified class of post-explosion ADS purchasers, which was agreed in June 2016 and recognized in Other payables, and finance costs relating to the unwinding of discounting effects. The charge for the half year also includes charges recorded in the first quarter for increases in provisions for certain business economic loss claims under the PSC settlement and the settlement of certain civil claims outside of the PSC settlement and additional finance costs.

Net cash from operating activities relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, on a post-tax basis, amounted to an outflow of $1,398 million and an outflow of $2,523 million in the second quarter and first half of 2016 respectively. For the same periods in 2015, the amounts were an outflow of $106 million and an outflow of $797 million respectively.

Trust fund

During the first half of 2016, the remaining cash in the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Trust (the Trust) was exhausted and BP commenced paying claims and other costs previously funded from the Trust. For certain costs, these payments are made by BP into a qualified settlement fund, the fund then distributes the amounts to the claimant; $860 million was paid into a qualified settlement fund during the second quarter ($1,399 million during the first half).

Environmental

The environmental provisions relating to natural resource damage costs and the early restoration framework agreement were reclassified to Other payables during the first quarter following approval by the Court in April 2016 of the Consent Decree between the United States, the Gulf states and BP. Remaining amounts related to early restoration were paid during the second quarter.

Litigation and claims

The litigation and claims provision includes amounts for the future cost of resolving claims by individuals and businesses for damage to real or personal property, lost profits or impairment of earning capacity and loss of subsistence use of natural resources. Claims administration costs and legal costs have also been provided for.

At 31 December 2015, the litigation and claims provision included amounts provided under the state claims settlement agreement with the Gulf states in relation to state claims that had not yet been paid. These amounts were reclassified to Other payables during the first quarter and are payable over 18 years; $0.9 billion was paid in July 2016.

Litigation and claims – PSC settlement

BP has provided for its best estimate of the cost associated with the 2012 PSC settlement.

Prior to the second quarter of 2016, no reliable estimate could be made of any business economic loss claims not yet processed or processed but not yet paid, except where an eligibility notice had been issued and was not subject to appeal by BP within the DHCSSP.

Financial statements (continued)

Notes

2.	Gulf of Mexico oil spill (continued)

The DHCSSP continues to process business economic loss claims and, for certain lower-value claims, simplified processing procedures have been implemented by the DHCSSP. In recent quarters the pace of processing claims has accelerated and, by the end of the second quarter, over three quarters of the total claims had been determined. Furthermore, the number of claims that had been processed using specialized frameworks for particular industry groups, that include the application of the revised policy for matching revenue and expenses, had increased significantly. Additional insight has also been obtained into the population of undetermined claims, including the industry groupings they fall within, which enhances BP’s understanding of the claims yet to be determined. The combination of these factors provides sufficient information to reliably estimate the liability for the remaining business economic loss claims. Accordingly, a provision has been established for these items as at 30 June 2016. Amounts to settle these claims are expected to be paid by 2019.

The provision has been determined based upon an expected value of the remaining business economic loss claims. Claims are determined by the DHCSSP in accordance with the PSC settlement agreement. The amounts ultimately payable may differ from the amount provided.

Litigation and claims – Other claims

During the second quarter, significant progress was also made in resolving economic loss and property damage claims from individuals and businesses that either opted out of the PSC settlement and/or were excluded from that settlement. On 14 July 2016 the federal district court issued an order, details of which are described in Legal proceedings on page 38. Following this court order, the vast majority of these claims have now been either resolved or dismissed. Therefore, an estimate of the cost of the remaining claims, most of which is expected to be paid by the end of 2016, is also recognized in provisions.

Clean Water Act penalties

The provision previously recognized for penalties under Section 311 of the Clean Water Act, as determined by the civil settlement with the United States, was reclassified to Other payables during the first quarter following approval by the Court of the Consent Decree. The amount is payable in instalments over 15 years, commencing April 2017. The unpaid balance of this penalty accrues interest at a fixed rate.

Further information on provisions is provided in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2015 – Financial statements – Note 2.

Contingent liabilities

Any further outstanding Deepwater Horizon related claims are not expected to have a material impact on the group’s financial performance.

3.	Non-current assets held for sale

On 15 January 2016 BP and Rosneft announced that they had signed definitive agreements to dissolve the German refining joint operation Ruhr Oel GmbH (ROG). The restructuring, which is expected to be completed in 2016, will result in Rosneft taking ownership of ROG’s interests in the Bayernoil, MiRO Karlsruhe and PCK Schwedt refineries. In exchange, BP will take sole ownership of the Gelsenkirchen refinery and the solvent production facility DHC Solvent Chemie. Assets and associated liabilities relating to BP’s share of ROG’s interests in the Bayernoil, MiRO Karlsruhe and PCK Schwedt refineries are classified as held for sale in the group balance sheet.

On 10 June 2016 BP and Det norske oljeselskap announced the creation of Aker BP ASA, an independent oil and gas company. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, which is expected to be completed in 2016, the BP Norge AS and Det norske businesses will combine and be renamed Aker BP ASA. The transaction will result in Aker BP ASA being owned by current Det norske shareholder Aker (40%), other Det norske shareholders (30%) and BP (30%). Assets and associated liabilities relating to BP Norge AS are classified as held for sale in the group balance sheet at 30 June 2016.

7.	Earnings per share and shares in issue

Basic earnings per ordinary share (EpS) amounts are calculated by dividing the profit for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period.

The calculation of EpS is performed separately for each discrete quarterly period, and for the year-to-date period. As a result, the sum of the discrete quarterly EpS amounts in any particular year-to-date period may not be equal to the EpS amount for the year-to-date period.

For the diluted EpS calculation the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the number of shares that are potentially issuable in connection with employee share-based payment plans using the treasury stock method.

8.	Dividends

Dividends payable

BP today announced an interim dividend of 10.00 cents per ordinary share which is expected to be paid on 16 September 2016 to shareholders and American Depositary Share (ADS) holders on the register on 5 August 2016. The corresponding amount in sterling is due to be announced on 6 September 2016, calculated based on the average of the market exchange rates for the four dealing days commencing on 31 August 2016. Holders of ADSs are expected to receive $0.600 per ADS (less applicable fees). A scrip dividend alternative is available, allowing shareholders to elect to receive their dividend in the form of new ordinary shares and ADS holders in the form of new ADSs. Details of the second-quarter dividend and timetable are available at bp.com/dividends and details of the scrip dividend programme are available at bp.com/scrip.
