Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase PlanThe Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plan") provides shareholders with a convenient way to purchase additional shares of Marathon Oil Corporation Common Stock without payment of any brokerage fees or service charges through the investment of cash dividends or through optional cash payments. The Plan was temporarily suspended in November 2008. We have reinstituted the Plan, as amended and restated, effective March 10, 2009. For further information about the Plan, please see the "Letter to Participants." A copy of the Plan Prospectus and Authorization Form can be found on the Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan page.

As a convenience, you also may indicate an address change on the face of your quarterly dividend check. Seasonal addresses also can be entered for your account. Taxpayer Identification NumberFederal law requires that each stockholder provide a certified Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) for his/her stockholder account. For individual stockholders, your TIN is your Social Security Number. If you do not provide a certified TIN, National City Bank may be required to withhold 28 percent for federal income taxes from your dividends. Exchange of CertificateIf you have not done so, we recommend that you return any USX Corporation or United States Steel Corporation common stock certificates, which were issued prior to May 7, 1991, in exchange for certificates for Marathon Oil Corporation common stock. Certificates should be sent to National City Bank. Lost Stock CertificateIf a stock certificate is lost, stolen, or destroyed, notify National City Bank in writing so that a "stop transfer" can be placed on the missing certificate. National City Bank will send you the necessary forms and instructions for obtaining a replacement certificate. You may be required to obtain and pay for the cost of an indemnity bond. If you find the missing certificate, notify National City Bank in writing immediately so that the stop transfer can be removed. To avoid loss, theft, or destruction, we recommend that you keep your certificates in a safe place, such as a safe deposit box at your bank. |
