A total of 5,775,000 shares of Common Stock (as adjusted for the ten-percent stock dividend effected by Apache on January 21, 2002, the five-percent stock dividend effected by Apache on April 2, 2003, and the two-for-one stock split effected by Apache on January 14, 2004) were initially registered in connection with the 1998 Stock Option Plan on Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 29, 1998 (File No. 333-53961).

By Post-Effective Amendment No.1 to Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 13, 2010 (File No. 333-53961), Apache removed from registration 273,248 shares of Common Stock previously registered in connection with the 1998 Stock Option Plan.

As the 1998 Stock Option Plan has terminated, Apache is hereby removing from registration the remaining 2,803 shares of Common Stock previously registered in connection with the 1998 Stock Option Plan.
