      <div style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 11pt;">Dear Fellow Occidental Stockholders:</div>
      <div style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 11pt;"><br>
      </div>
      <div style="text-indent: 36pt; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 11pt;">As large stockholders, we are very concerned with the situation at Occidental Petroleum Corporation
        (&#8220;OXY&#8221;).&#160; As the market continues to reject OXY&#8217;s <font style="font-style: italic;">new</font> business model that puts at risk the Company&#8217;s long-standing dividend, and as OXY&#8217;s stock price further declines:</div>
      <div style="text-indent: 36pt; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <font style="font-size: 11pt;"><br>

          and reject, or fail to properly consider and bring to stockholders, any credible offers to acquire OXY? In our opinion, this is a very real risk.&#160; Further, and as we have previously said, we believe that OXY&#8217;s acquisition of Anadarko was in part
          motivated to create a de facto poison pill that would deter an interested buyer from bidding for OXY.<font style="font-weight: bold;">&#160; </font><font style="font-weight: bold;"><u>With our representatives on the Board, and as our record proves,
              stockholders can be certain our directors will ensure the Board will work diligently to properly respond to any credible bids.</u></font></font></div>

          Hollub and her Board, who, in our view, failed to prudently exercise discipline in their relentless pursuit of Anadarko, make additional undisciplined mistakes, and possibly panic in a single-minded focus to support the dividend <font style="font-style: italic;">at any cost</font>? Will they <font style="font-style: italic;">do anything</font> in an attempt to try to prove that paying a massive premium for Anadarko was in fact a wise decision?</font></div>

          we have heard that OXY believes our directors would cause a distraction on the Board.&#160; <font style="font-weight: bold;"><u>Is it a distraction to ask tough questions, and challenge assumptions and the status quo, in order to build stockholder
              value? Because, that is our record.</u></font>&#160; Additionally, our record shows that we do not micromanage.&#160; However, if OXY were genuinely concerned about these issues, and not just creating an excuse to reject stockholder representation,
          then we would be happy to provide a list of dozens of CEOs, CFOS and board members who we have worked with over the years and who will attest to our record; indeed Hollub herself has admitted we have created value at many companies.&#160; <font style="font-weight: bold;"><u>But in our view, OXY is not actually concerned with our directors being a distraction, instead we believe Hollub and her Board are worried that our presence may open the door to a potential purchaser of OXY and
              that we would insist that stockholders, not the Board, determine whether they wish to accept a credible bid.</u></font></font></div>

        statements that are predications of or indicate future events, trends, plans or objectives. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements because, by their nature, they are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties.
        Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or activities and are subject to many risks and uncertainties. Due to such risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or actual performance may differ materially from those
        reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of the future tense or other forward-looking words such as &#8220;believe,&#8221; &#8220;expect,&#8221; &#8220;anticipate,&#8221; &#8220;intend,&#8221; &#8220;plan,&#8221; &#8220;estimate,&#8221;
