Optional Redemption:

   Prior to January 6, 2030 (the date that is three months prior to the scheduled maturity date for the 2030 Notes), BP Capital America has the right to redeem the 2030 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the 2030 Notes to be redeemed that would be due if such 2030 Notes matured on January 6, 2030 (not including any portion of payments of interest accrued and unpaid to the redemption date) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate plus 45 basis points, plus in either case accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption. On or after January 6, 2030 (the date that is three months prior to the scheduled maturity date for the 2030 Notes), BP Capital America has the right to redeem the 2030 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption. For purposes of determining the optional redemption price, the following definitions are applicable. “Treasury rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated (on a day count basis) of the comparable treasury issue, assuming a price for the comparable treasury issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the comparable treasury price for such redemption date. “Comparable treasury issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by the quotation agent as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such 2030 Notes. “Comparable treasury price” means, with respect to any redemption date, the average of the reference treasury dealer quotations for such redemption date.


   “Quotation agent” means one of the reference treasury dealers appointed by BP Capital America. “Reference treasury dealer” means BNP Paribas Securities Corp., BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC or their affiliates, each of which is a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “primary treasury dealer”), and their respective successors, and two other primary treasury dealers selected by BP Capital America, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary treasury dealer, BP Capital America shall substitute therefor another primary treasury dealer. “Reference treasury dealer quotations” means with respect to each reference treasury dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the quotation agent, of the bid and asked prices for the comparable treasury issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the quotation agent by such reference treasury dealer at 5:00 p.m. New York time on the third business day preceding such redemption date.
