PREFERRED STOCK REDEMPTION
In connection with the Anadarko Acquisition, Occidental issued 100,000 shares of series A preferred stock, with a face value of $100,000 per share and a liquidation preference of $105,000 per share plus unpaid accrued dividends. Prior to August 2029, a mandatory redemption provision obligates Occidental to redeem preferred stock at a 10% premium to face value on a dollar-for-dollar basis for every dollar distributed to common shareholders (either via common stock dividends or share repurchases) above $4.00 per share, on a trailing 12-month basis. Preferred redemptions can settle between 30 and 60 days from the date Berkshire Hathaway is notified of the redemption obligation and accrued unpaid dividends are paid up to but not including the redemption date. Occidental cannot voluntarily redeem preferred stock before August 2029. After August 2029, Occidental can voluntarily redeem preferred stock at a 5% premium to face value.
Dividends on preferred stock accrue on the face value at a rate per annum of 8%, but will be paid only when, and if, declared by Occidental’s Board of Directors. At any time, when such dividends have not been paid in full, the unpaid amounts will accrue dividends, compounded quarterly, at a rate per annum of 9%. Following the payment in full of any accrued but unpaid dividends, the dividend rate will remain at 9% per annum. If preferred dividends are not paid in full, Occidental is prohibited from paying dividends on common stock. Occidental paid $205 million in preferred stock dividends in the second quarter of 2023.
In the three months ended June 30, 2023, Occidental triggered the redemption of preferred stock with a face value of $522 million, and an additional $52 million premium. Occidental triggered the redemption of preferred stock of $1.3 billion, inclusive of a 10% premium, in the six months ended June 30, 2023. Of this amount, $304 million, inclusive of a 10% premium, was settled in cash subsequent to June 30, 2023 but before the date of this filing. To the extent Occidental's trailing 12-month distributions to common shareholders remain above $4.00 per share, Occidental is required to continue to match any common shareholder distributions with preferred stock redemptions. As of the date of this filing, approximately $8.8 billion face value of preferred stock remains outstanding.
The following table presents preferred stock redemption activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023:

Preferred stock, as of December 31, 2022100,000

Preferred stock, as of March 31, 202393,532 
Less: Obligated redemptions(5,220)
Preferred stock, as of June 30, 202388,312 

The carrying value of preferred stock is less than the face value. The difference between carrying value and face value, along with the redemption premium, reduces net income available to common stockholders. The following presents the components of preferred stock dividends and redemptions:
