BENSALEM, Pa., June 4, 2008 (Lawfuel) — Law Offices of Howard
G. Smith announces that it is investigating claims against BP p.l.c.
(“BP” or the “Company”)(NYSE:BP) concerning whether the BP
post-retirement benefit plans (the “Plans”) imprudently invested in BP
stock and whether the Plans’ administrators breached their fiduciary
duties to the Plans’ participants in violation of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
The investigation concerns whether BP and other administrators of the
Plans failed to prudently and loyally manage the Plans’ investments in
BP p.l.c. stock by continuing to offer Company stock when the stock was
no longer a prudent investment for participants’ retirement savings.

continues to participate in, a BP post-retirement benefit plan and have
information or would like to learn more about these claims, please
