(a) 
Included approximately 2 million shares of common stock issued to a benefits trust for former Anadarko employees treated as treasury stock at December 31, 2019.

TREASURY STOCK
The total number of shares authorized for Occidental’s share repurchase program is 185 million shares of which 44.2 million may yet be purchased under the repurchase program. However, the program does not obligate Occidental to acquire any specific number of shares and may be discontinued at any time. In 2019, 2.7 million shares were purchased at an average price of $66.94 under the program and in 2018, 16.9 million shares were purchased at an average price of $74.92. No shares were purchased under the program in 2017. Additionally, Occidental purchased shares from the trustee of its defined contribution savings plan during each year. As of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, treasury stock shares numbered 150.3 million, 145.7 million, and 128.4 million, respectively.

PREFERRED STOCK
Occidental has authorized 50 million shares of preferred stock with a par value of $1.00 per share. On August 8, 2019, in connection with the Acquisition, Occidental issued 100,000 shares of series A preferred stock (the Preferred Stock), having a face value of $100,000 per share and a liquidation preference of $105,000 per share plus unpaid accrued dividends. In connection with the preferred stock issuance, Occidental also issued the Warrant. The holder of the Warrant and the Preferred Stock may redeem the Preferred Stock as payment for the exercise price of the Warrant in lieu of cash payment upon exercise. The Preferred Stock is redeemable at Occidental’s option after the 10th anniversary of issuance. Dividends on the Preferred Stock will accrue on the face value at a rate per annum of 8 percent, but will be paid only when, as, 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 percent. Following the payment in full of any accrued but unpaid dividends, the dividend rate will remain at 9 percent per annum. In January 2020, Occidental paid $200 million in Preferred Stock dividends. At December 31, 2019, Occidental had 100,000 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, and none were outstanding in 2018 and 2017.
