Rules of the BP p.l.c. Share Value Plan

Introduction

This Plan sets out the terms on which Shares may be provided to certain employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Employees selected for participation in the Plan will be granted  Restricted Share Units which gives them a conditional entitlement to receive Shares. The extent to which Shares are released in respect of Restricted Share Units is subject to continued employment and the satisfaction of conditions over a performance period.

1 Granting Restricted Share Units

1.1 Grantor

The Grantor of Restricted Share Units must be:

1.1.1 the Company; or

1.1.2 any other Member of the Group.

Restricted Share Units granted under the Plan, and the terms of those Restricted Share Units, must be approved in advance by the Directors.

1.2 Eligibility

The Grantor may grant Restricted Share Units to anyone who is an Employee on the Grant Date in accordance with any selection criteria that the Directors in their discretion may set. However, unless the Directors consider that special circumstances exist, Restricted Share Units may not be granted to an Employee who on or before the Grant Date has given or received notice of termination of employment, whether or not such termination is lawful. However, no Restricted Share Units may be granted to any executive director of the Company without the prior shareholder approval of the shareholders in general meeting, where required under any law or regulation.

1.3 Timing of grant

Restricted Share Units may not be granted at any time after the Expiry Date.

1.4 Terms of Restricted Share Units

Restricted Share Units are subject to the rules of the Plan and any Performance Condition and must be granted by deed. The terms of the Restricted Share Units must be determined by the Grantor and approved by the Directors. The terms must be set out in the deed, including:

1.4.1 the number of Shares subject to the Restricted Share Units or the basis on which the number of Shares subject to the Restricted Share Units will be calculated;

1.4.2 any Performance Condition;

1.4.3 any other condition specified under rule 1.6;

1.4.4 the date of Vesting, unless specified in a Performance Condition; and

1.4.5 the Grant Date.

1

1.5 Performance Conditions

When granting Restricted Share Units, the Grantor may make Vesting conditional on the satisfaction of one or more conditions linked to the performance of the Company and/or the performance of the Participant. A Performance Condition must be objective and specified at the Grant Date. The Grantor, with the consent of the Directors, may waive or change a Performance Condition in accordance with its terms or if anything happens which causes the Grantor reasonably to consider it appropriate to do so.

1.6 Other conditions

The Grantor may impose other conditions when granting Restricted Share Units. Any condition must be specified at the Grant Date and may provide that Restricted Share Units will lapse if it is not satisfied. The Grantor, with the consent of the Directors, may waive or change a condition imposed under this rule 1.6.

1.7 Notification of Restricted Share Units

The Company may notify a Participant of the grant of Restricted Share Units and their terms in such manner as it decides.

1.8 No payment

A Participant is not required to pay for the grant of any Restricted Share Units.

1.9 Administrative errors

If the Grantor grants Restricted Share Units which are inconsistent with rule 1.2, they will lapse immediately.

1.10 Issue of Shares

Shares may not be issued or transferred from treasury to satisfy Restricted Share Units without prior approval of this Plan by shareholders of the Company.

1.11 ADSs

The Directors may determine that certain Restricted Share Units will be in respect of ADSs and references in these rules to Shares shall be construed accordingly.

2 Before Vesting

2.1 Rights

A Participant is not entitled to vote, to receive dividends or to have any other rights of a shareholder in respect of Shares subject to Restricted Share Units until the Shares are transferred to the Participant.

2.2 Restriction on disposal of interests and hedging

2.2.1 Subject to rule 2.2.2, a Participant may not sell, transfer, assign, hedge, charge or otherwise dispose of Restricted Share Units (or part of or any interest in Restricted Share Units) and must not enter into any transaction which transfers the risk of price movements with regard to the Shares subject to Restricted Share Units. If he does, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, then the Directors may determine that all of the Restricted Share Units lapse.

2

2.2.2 Rule 2.2.1 does not apply:

(i) to the transmission of Restricted Share Units on the death of a Participant to his personal representatives; or

(ii) to the assignment of Restricted Share Units, with the prior consent of the Directors, subject to any terms and conditions the Directors impose.

2.3 Adjustment of Restricted Share Units

If there is:

(i) a variation in the equity share capital of the Company, including a capitalisation or rights issue, sub-division, consolidation or reduction of share capital;

(ii) a demerger (in whatever form) or exempt distribution by virtue of Section 1075 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010;

(iii) a special dividend or distribution, or

(iv) any other corporate event which might affect the current or future value of any Restricted Share Units,

the Directors may adjust the number or class of Shares or securities subject to the Restricted Share Units.

3 Vesting of Restricted Share Units

3.1 Satisfying conditions

As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of the Performance Period, the Directors will determine whether and to what extent any Performance Condition or other condition imposed under rule 1.6 has been satisfied or waived and how many Restricted Share Units Vest.

3.2 Timing of Vesting

Subject to rules 1.6, 4.6, 5 and 6, Restricted Share Units Vest, to the extent determined under rule 3.1, on a date determined by the Directors but which shall not be earlier than the date on which the Directors make their determination under rule 3.1 or, if on that date a Dealing Restriction applies to those Restricted Share Units, the first date on which it ceases to apply.

3.3 Lapse

To the extent that any Performance Condition is not satisfied at the end of the Performance Period, the Restricted Share Units lapse, unless otherwise specified in the Performance Condition. To the extent that any other condition is not satisfied, the Restricted Share Units will lapse if so specified in the terms of that condition. If any Restricted Share Units lapse under the Plan they cannot Vest and a Participant has no rights in respect of them.

4 What happens when Restricted Share Units Vest

4.1 Transfer

Within 30 days of Restricted Share Units Vesting, the Grantor will arrange (subject to rules 4.4, 5.4 and 8.8) for the transfer to, or to the order of, the Participant, of the number of Shares in respect of which the Restricted Share Units have Vested. Subject to rule 4.5, the Participant will be entitled to all rights to Shares where the record dates in respect of such rights fall after the date of transfer.

3

4.2 Dividend Equivalent

The number of Shares in respect of which Restricted Share Units Vest shall be increased (“Additional Shares”) as determined by the Directors to take account of the Net Dividends that would have been paid on the number of Shares subject to the Restricted Share Units which have Vested between the beginning of the Performance Period and the date on which the Restricted Share Units Vest (“Dividend Equivalents). The Additional Shares shall be calculated on the basis that Net Dividends were re-invested in Shares at the time the dividends would have been paid.  Additional Shares will be credited to a Participant at Vesting.  All Additional Shares shall be subject to the rules of the Plan and the terms of the Restricted Share Units by reference to which they were granted, including the same Performance Period.

The Directors may at any time decide to disapply this rule 4.2 in relation to all or part of a special dividend or dividend in specie which may otherwise be included in rule 4.2.

For the purposes of this rule 4.2, “Net Dividends” means the amount of the dividend less any notional tax credit.

4.3 Cash alternative

The Grantor may, subject to the approval of the Directors, decide to satisfy Restricted Share Units (including any Additional Shares under rule 4.2) by paying an equivalent amount in cash (subject to rule 4.4). The cash amount must be equal to the Market Value (as at the date of Vesting) of the Shares which would but for the application of this rule have been transferred on Vesting.

For the purposes of this rule, “Market Value” means in relation to a Share on any day:

4.3.1 the middle market quotation (as derived from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange) on the immediately preceding Business Day; or

4.3.2 in relation to an ADS the closing trading price of an ADS as derived from the New York Stock Exchange Inc. on the immediately preceding Business Day.

4.4 Withholding, deductions and offsets

4.4.1 The Company, the Grantor, any employing company or trustee of any employee benefit trust may withhold such amount and make such arrangements as it considers necessary to meet its withholding obligations for taxation or social security contributions in respect of Restricted Share Units. These arrangements may include the sale or reduction in number of any Shares or the Participant discharging the liability himself.

4.4.2 In addition, it shall be a condition of the Vesting of Restricted Share Units that the Company, the Grantor, any employing Company or trustee may deduct from and set off against the Shares (whether payable in cash or Shares and whenever payable) any debt, obligation, liability, or other amount owed by the Participant to a Member of the Group, including but not limited to amounts under an international assignment tax policy (as currently in effect or as amended from time to time), or amounts advanced on behalf of the Participant with respect to employment taxes, as determined in the sole discretion of the Directors.

4

4.5 Forfeiture

4.5.1 Notwithstanding any other rules of the Plan (including, without limitation, rules 5.2 and 5.4), if the Directors determine that a Participant has engaged in conduct (including, but not limited to, a violation of the BP Code of Conduct) which the Directors consider was contrary to the legitimate expectations of the Company for an employee in the Participant's position then the Directors may reduce the number of Shares subject to Restricted Share Units (including to zero) or if Restricted Share Units have already Vested but Shares have not yet been transferred (because of, for example, any Dealing Restrictions), transfer to the Participant a reduced number of Shares or no Shares at all.

4.5.2 Where a Participant has ceased to be an Employee but has retained his Restricted Share Units as a consequence of rule 5.2 the Directors retain the right to lapse his Restricted Share Units if, prior to Vesting, the Participant joins a Competitor Organisation of any Member of the Group within 12 months of ceasing to be an Employee. The Directors will have the sole discretion to determine the definition of “Competitor Organisation”.

4.6 Career breaks

4.6.1 If a Participant is on a Career Break on the date that his Restricted Share Units would ordinarily Vest under the Plan, then unless the Directors determine otherwise in any particular case, the Restricted Share Units will only Vest after the Directors determine that the Participant has returned to normal employment at the end of the Career Break and has continued to be in his normal employment for a period of three months from the date of return, and in that period has not given notice of termination of employment. The Shares subject to the Restricted Share Units will be transferred as soon as practicable after such determination.

4.6.2 Unless any of the reasons set out in rules 5.2, 5.4, or 6.1 apply, if the Participant ceases to be an employee or director of any Member of the Group before having returned to normal employment at the end of the Career Break or during the three month period referred to in rule 4.6.1, then his Restricted Share Units will lapse on cessation of employment. If any of the reasons set out in rules 5.2.1, 5.4 or 6.1 do apply, his Restricted Share Units will Vest in accordance with those rules.

5 Cessation of employment / personal events

5.1 General rule on leaving employment

Unless rule 5.2 applies, Restricted Share Units which have not Vested will lapse on the date the Participant ceases to be an Employee.

5.2 “Good leavers”

5.2.1 If a Participant ceases to be an Employee for any of the reasons set out below after the end of the calendar year in which his Restricted Share Units are granted, then his Restricted Share Units will Vest as described in rule 5.3 and lapse as to the balance. The reasons are:

(i) termination by the Participant’s employing company as a result of ill-health, injury or disability;

(ii) the Participant’s employing company ceasing to be a Member of the Group;

5

(iii) a transfer of the undertaking, or the part of the undertaking, in which the Participant works to a person which is not a Member  of the Group;

(iv) redundancy; and

(v) any other reason, if the Directors so decide in any particular case.

5.2.2 The Directors may only exercise the discretion provided for in rule 5.2.1(v) within 80 days after cessation of the relevant Participant’s employment.

5.3 Vesting

Where rule 5.2 applies, the Restricted Share Units do not lapse, and the extent to which they will Vest is measured in accordance with rule 3.1 at the end of the Performance Period. [However, the Directors may decide in their discretion that the Performance Period in respect of Restricted Share Units should be treated as ending on the date of the termination of employment and that the Restricted Share Units should Vest immediately, to the extent that the Performance Condition has been or is likely to be satisfied (as determined by the Directors in the manner specified in the Performance Condition or in such manner as they consider reasonable).]

5.4 Death

If a Participant dies, his Restricted Share Units will Vest on the date of death in full. For the avoidance of doubt, there will be no adjustment to take into account the extent to which the Performance Condition is satisfied at that time.

The Grantor will only arrange for Shares to be transferred to the personal representatives of a deceased Participant if they have produced a UK grant of representation or such other documentation indicating that the transferee is the proper beneficiary of the Participant as may be accepted by the Directors.

5.5 Overseas transfer

If a Participant remains an Employee but is transferred to work in another country or changes tax resident status and, as a result he would:

5.5.1 suffer a tax disadvantage in relation to his Restricted Share Units (this being shown to the satisfaction of the Directors); or

5.5.2 become subject to restrictions on his ability to hold or deal in the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of the Shares acquired on Vesting because of the security laws or exchange control laws of the country to which he is transferred,

then the Directors may decide that the Restricted Share Units will Vest on a date they choose before or after the transfer takes effect. The Restricted Share Units will Vest to the extent they permit and will lapse as to the balance.

5.6 Meaning of “ceasing to be an Employee”

For the purposes of rules 4 and 5, a Participant will not be treated as ceasing to be an Employee until he is no longer an Employee of any Member of the Group or if he recommences employment with a Member of the Group within seven days.

6 Vesting in other circumstances - corporate events

6.1 Time of Vesting

6

6.1.1 In the event of a Change of Control Restricted Share Units Vest subject to rules 6.1.2 and 6.3. The Restricted Share Units lapse as to the balance except to the extent exchanged under rule 6.3.

6.1.2 If the Company is or may be affected by:

(i) any demerger, delisting, distribution (other than an ordinary dividend) or other transaction which, in the opinion of the Directors, might affect the current or future value of Restricted Share Units, or

(ii) any reverse takeover (not within rule 6.1.1 above), merger by way of a dual listed company or other significant corporate event, as determined by the Directors,

the Directors may allow Restricted Share Units to Vest. The Restricted Share Units will Vest to the extent specified in rule 6.2 and will lapse as to the balance unless exchanged under rule 6.3. the Directors may impose other conditions on Vesting.

6.2 Extent of Vesting

Where Restricted Share Units Vest under rule 6.1, the Directors will determine the extent to which the Performance Condition has been satisfied and the proportion of the Restricted Share Units which will Vest. In addition, unless the Directors decide otherwise the number of Restricted Share Units are reduced pro rata to reflect the acceleration of Vesting.

6.3 Exchange

Restricted Share Units will not Vest under rule 6.1 but will be exchanged on the terms set out in rule 6.6 to the extent that:

6.3.1 an offer to exchange Restricted Share Units is made and accepted by a Participant; or

6.3.2 the Directors, with the consent of the Acquiring Company, decide before Change of Control that Restricted Share Units will be automatically exchanged.

6.4 Directors

In this rule 6, “Directors” means those people who were Directors for the purposes of the Plan immediately before the Change of Control.

6.5 Timing of exchange

Where Restricted Share Units are to be exchanged under rule 6.3 the exchange is effective immediately following the Change of Control.

6.6.1 must confer a right to receive shares in the Acquiring Company or another body corporate determined by the Acquiring Company;

6.6.2 must be equivalent, as far as possible, to the existing Restricted Share Units, subject to rule 6.6.4;

7

6.6.3 are treated as having been granted at the same time as the existing Restricted Share Units and, subject to rule 6.6.4, Vest in the same manner and at the same time;

6.6.4 must:

(i) be subject to a Performance Condition which is, so far as possible, equivalent to the Performance Condition applying to the existing Restricted Share Units; or

(ii) not be subject to any Performance Condition but be in respect of the number of shares which is equivalent to the number of Shares comprised in the existing Restricted Share Units which would have Vested under rule 6.2 and Vest at the end of the original Performance Period or on the date of Vesting set by the Directors on the grant of the Restricted Share Units; and/or

(iii) be subject to such other terms as the Directors consider appropriate in all the circumstances.

6.6.5 is governed by the Plan as if references to Shares were references to the shares over which the new Restricted Share Units are granted and references to the Company were references to the Acquiring Company or the body corporate determined under rule 6.6.1 above.

8.8 Consents

No Shares may be transferred in satisfaction of grants under this Schedule 2 and references to Restricted Share Units and Vesting shall be construed accordingly.

4 No rights as shareholders

As a result only of their participation under this Schedule 2, Participants will have no rights as shareholders of the Company and no rights to acquire Shares.

5 Payments of cash

After the end of the Performance Period for grants made under this Schedule 2 (and once any determinations are made under rule 3.1 of the Plan, if applicable) then the Directors will determine the number of Shares which would have Vested had a grant of Restricted Share Units been made rather than a grant of Restricted Cash Units and shall make a cash payment to the Participant in accordance with rule 4.3 of the Plan.

Schedule 3

US

This United States (“US”) Schedule has been adopted by the Directors and shall vary the terms of the Plan (and any other related documents) accordingly for all US Participants. For the purposes of this Schedule 2, a “US Participant” means a Participant who is:

(i) a US citizen;

(ii) a US permanent resident (as may be evidenced by a so-called “green card” and/or participation in a US tax-qualified pension plan sponsored by a Member of the Group);

(iii) a non-US citizen who is posted to the United States on or after Vesting and who is (or expected to become) subject to US taxation as a resident alien; or

(iv) a non-US citizen subject to US taxation, including a non-resident alien taxpayer of the United States, but only to the extent that his or her  participation in the Plan gives rise to income or deemed income from a US source subject to taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Rule 1.6 shall be varied by adding the following:

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan rules to the contrary, neither the Grantor nor the Directors may waive or change conditions which require a US Participant to remain employed or to perform services as a condition of the Vesting or release of Restricted Share Units, or in violation of Section 409A of the Code.

Rule 4.1 shall be varied by adding the following:

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan rules to the contrary, the transfer of Shares upon Vesting will occur no later than the end of the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends, or if later, by the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Performance Period.

Rule 4.4.2 shall be varied by adding the following:

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan rules to the contrary, any right of the Company, the Grantor, any employing Company or trustee to deduct from and set off against the Shares any debt, obligation, liability, or other amount owed by the Participant to a Member of the Group, shall be subject to limitations imposed by Section 409A of the Code.

Rule 4.6 shall be varied by adding the following:

Rule 4.6 is not intended to be applied to a Participant who is considered a US Participant. If applicable non-US law requires the general application of rule 4.6 to any US Participant, rule 4.6 will be applied in a manner consistent with the provisions of rule 5.2 of this US Schedule and Section 409A of the Code.

Rule 5.2 shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:

5.2  Leaving in exceptional circumstances

If a US Participant ceases to be an Employee for any of the reasons set out below after the end of the calendar year in which his Restricted Share Units are granted or more than 12 months after the start of the Performance Period, then his Restricted Shares Units will Vest on the original Vesting date as described in rule 5.3 and lapse as to the balance.  The reasons are:

(1) Disability. For the purposes of this rule, a US Participant will be considered Disabled if he is (i) unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months; or (ii) by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 12 months, receiving income replacement benefits for a period of not less than 3 months under an accident and health plan covering employees of a Member of the Group; or (iii) otherwise disabled within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code; or

16

(2) a US Participant’s involuntary termination of employment with any Member of the Group, other than due to such Participant’s conduct or performance. For avoidance of doubt, the following circumstances will be considered an involuntary termination of employment: (A) termination of a US Participant’s employment by his or her employer with no anticipated return to employment with a Member of the Group, or a termination considered by the Directors to have been initiated by the US Participant’s employer with no anticipated return to employment with a Member of the Group, in both cases where the termination is not based on the US Participant’s conduct or performance; (B) termination of a US Participant’s employment as a result of a Change of Control.  A transfer of employment from one Member of the Group to another will not be considered a termination of employment, nor will a reduction in hours, unless such is considered an involuntary “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

Rule 5.3 shall be varied by adding the following:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Directors may not treat the Performance Period in respect of Restricted Share Units granted to a US Participant as ending on the date of the termination of employment, and where rule 5.3applies, the Shares may only be released after the end of the Performance Period, but in no event later than the end of the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends, or if later, by the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Performance Period.

Rule 5.4 shall be varied by adding the following:

The Shares will in all circumstances be delivered within 90 days after the date of the Participant’s death.

Rule 5.5 shall be varied by adding the following:

Rule 5.5 is not intended to be applied to a US Participant.

Rule 6.1 shall be varied by adding the following:

This rule 6.1 will only apply when the Change of Control or corporate event described in rule 6.1.2 constitutes a Change of Control.

Rule 6.2 shall be varied by adding the following:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the transfer of Shares upon Award Vesting under rule 6.1 will be within 90 days after such corporate event.

Rule 6.3 shall be varied by adding the following:

This rule 6.3 is not intended to be applied to a US Participant.

17

Rule 9 shall be varied by adding the following:

Rule 9, definition of “Career Break” shall be varied by adding the following:

For US Participants, a Career Break shall only be recognized for purposes of this Plan if the Participant is reasonably expected to return to work with the Company after the expiration of the break and such break is approved by the Company in advance of the break’s onset.  The maximum recognized period for a Career Break for US Participants will be six (6) months (or such longer period if the Participant has a legal or contractual right to return to work with the Company immediately following the expiration of the break), with a voluntary termination of employment considered to have taken place for purposes of the Plan for any such longer period, as determined in accordance with Section 409A of the Code.

Rule 9, definition of “Change of Control” shall be replaced by the following:

“Change of Control” shall mean a change in the ownership of the Company, change in effective control of the Company or change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets, as such phrases are specifically defined by United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(v), (vi) and (vii), as applicable to the terms herein and as may hereafter be amended.

The following shall be added as rule 10

10  Compliance with Section 409A and Other Applicable Laws

Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code with respect to US Participants.  Accordingly, all provisions herein, or incorporated by reference, shall be construed and interpreted to comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent required.  Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, if a US Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code at the time of separation from service, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, any payment required under this Plan shall be held for delayed payment and shall be distributed on or immediately after the date which is six months after the date of the Participant’s separation from service, or death if earlier.  In no event may the US Participant, directly or indirectly, designate the calendar year of a payment.  Notwithstanding the provisions of rule 8.6, the Plan shall be unfunded for the purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary, including but not limited to rules 7.1 and 7.5, the Directors may amend or terminate the grant, Vesting and/or release of Restricted Share Units under this Plan at any time and without prior notice if the Directors determine in their sole discretion that such action is necessary or advisable to avoid or mitigate potential non-compliance with applicable law or if compliance would create unreasonable administrative burdens.  If the terms of a grant, Vesting or release of Restricted Share Units are amended or terminated, the Company is under no obligation to provide any consideration or remuneration in lieu of the grant, Vesting and/or release of Restricted Share Units.

All taxes, penalties, or interest imposed on any Participant due to any failure to comply with Section 409A of the Code or other tax rule shall be the Participant’s responsibility and no Member of the Group shall have any obligation to keep the Participant whole.
