Annual general meeting 2014
Letter to ordinary and preference shareholders
bp.com/agm
A letter from Carl-Henric Svanberg, Chairman
I am pleased to invite you to BP's 105th annual general meeting. The meeting will be held at ExCeL, London on Thursday, 10 April 2014. The meeting will start at 11.30 am. Your votes matter. If you cannot attend, please vote your shares by appointing a proxy.
Our reports look a little different this year. To meet the changes in UK legislation, BP has prepared the more detailed Strategic report which replaces the Summary review. This sets out the company's strategy and business model, principal risks and uncertainties, and key performance indicators, together with information about environmental matters, employees, and social, community and human rights issues. It exists as a separate report, but it also forms the first part of the BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2013.
The resolutions and notes explaining them are set out in the BP Notice of Meeting 2014. Please read this document carefully before voting. You can download a copy of the notice and all corporate reports at bp.com/agm.
Your votes matter. The board recommends that you support each of the resolutions.
On behalf of the board, I look forward to welcoming you to BP's annual general meeting 2014.
Carl-Henric Svanberg Chairman 26 February 2014
