Key Messages The market is more uncertain than ever The market provides the ability to manage risk & reduce volatility Risk management frameworks can be useful tools BP provides liquidity, tools, and ideas to manage risk 4
Risk Management Framework Develop objectives Identify risks Monitor Conditions Develop and Execute Plan Reflect and Reassess Budget Certainty Cash Flow Protect Margins Dampen Volatility Competitive Advantage Catastrophe Insurance Commodity Price Credit Operational Interest Rate Regulatory Concerned about propane supply risk? Price risk? Would you like to increase the certainty that your supply cost assumptions are correct? 5
Develop Risk Management Objectives Review your supply, operational, and marketing plans Marketing programs offered to your customers? Fixed price? Capped price programs? Optimizing storage? Protect value of inventory Protect price of gas in transit Review your goals Protect margins? Grow business? Cash management Credit 6
Proactive Risk Management Proactive risk management is like preventative medicine the immediate benefits are not always obvious and there are often costs involved. Benefits Reduce and/or eliminate price volatility for the customer base Protection against adverse outcomes & catastrophic risk protection Stability of business planning & cash flow Price Risk Management is best applied: Consistently Under guidelines of a corporate or regulatory mandate With knowledge of the underlying marketing Costs May limit a company s upside.

Execute Plan Wholesale physical propane agreement considerations Delivery location and mode Volume Term spot to 5 years Price Fixed price for agreed time period and exact quantity Market index with differential Maximum price Min price obligation Collar floor and ceiling 18
Deep North American NGLs Presence Broad Physical Presence Marketing ~250,000 bpd of NGLs Optimize 2+ million barrels of off-hub NGL storage 100,000 bpd fractionation capacity at multiple US Gulf Coast facilities ~160,000 bpd current equity and customer natural gas liquids (NGLs) keep dry commitment ~1,900 NGL railcar fleet Shipper on most major NGL pipelines Established US production base provides supply security and flexibility Marine terminal access to international markets coast to coast Ethane * Propane * Butane * Y-grade * Ethylene * Propylene 19
Physical Contracting What do we see? Longer time horizons for contracting 2-3 year supply deals for a portion of portfolio Month average pricing, as well as day of lift Fixed differentials to CW or MB Caps Increased use of NAESB contract 20
Execute Plan Traditional Physical Hedging Physical pre-buy Agreement to buy portion of physical supply at fixed price Falling prices can leave you lifting C3 at higher price Allocation issues can cause pre-bought product to be unavailable Physical hedge at MB or CW Buy phys supply at posting or diff to CW or MB Buy MB or CW C3 at a fixed price as hedge Sell MB or CW C3 at an index Flexibility to exit hedge when desired by reversing these transactions 21
Execute Plan Financial Hedging Defined as hedging when physical position offsets financial activity Executed as swap under an ISDA or on an exchange Fixed price financial swap Floating price is exchanged for a fixed price for a specific time period Protects against rising prices; opportunity costs if prices decline No upfront premium If you buy a swap from BP, you fix the price against the index If the floating price > fixed price, you will receive an amount equal to the difference of the prices If the floating price < fixed price, then you will pay an amount equal to the difference of the prices 22
Options Pay or receive premium like insurance policy maximum price of hedge is known up front Call option right (but not obligation) to buy at the strike price Buying protects a company s risk against rising prices Strike price agreed by buyer and seller and can be a fixed price or an index-related price Hedge for retail price cap programs Example in April 2018, you pay 6 cpg for a 90 cpg strike for Jan 2019 C3 On Jan 31 st, if Jan avg C3 is greater than the strike, you receive the difference between the strike price and the average; if MB Jan avg is 95 cpg, you receive 5 cpg On Jan 31 st, if Jan avg C3 is less than the strike, nothing happens Put options right (but not obligation) to sell at an agreed price Option buyer receives payment when prices fall below the strike price 23

Price Ideas Fixed Price Hedge trying to achieve budget or reduce volatility like current price levels consider a simple fixed price hedge May 18-Apr 19 non-tet C3 is ~ 78 cpg consider locking in basis as well through supply contracts provides planning certainty protects against a catastrophic price move Prices are indicative only and subject to change with market conditions. 25
Price Idea Minimum price obligation upside protection is less of a concern looking to buy product at a discount to index consider an Index Discount with a minimum price obligation For May 18- Mar19, buy propane at the OPIS average less 2 cpg with a minimum price of 65 cpg. So if OPIS average was 90 cpg, your price would be 88 cpg (OPIS 2 cpg). If OPIS was 60 cpg, your price would be 65 cpg (the minimum price). Prices are indicative only and subject to change with market conditions. 26
Price Idea 3-way collar Less concerned that prices will take off want some protection and a discount on your price For May 18 - Apr 19 with a 65 cpg floor and a 90 cpg cap with a 100 cpg reopener, your price would be: 65 cpg, if OPIS settled below 65 cpg; OPIS Month Average, if OPIS Month Average settled between 65 cpg and 90 cpg; 90 cpg, if OPIS month average settled between 90 cpg and 100 cpg. Opis Month average minus 10 cpg, if OPIS settled greater than 100 cpg. Prices are indicative only and subject to change with market conditions. 27
Hedging Activity What do we see? Fixed price program hedging Hedging optimization decisions Hedging to reduce risk in acquisition decisions Asset development economic hedging Debt Restructurings 28
