NOTICE OF CHANGE OF LOCATION OF

Dear Marathon Oil Corporation Stockholders:
 
Due to continued public health concerns related to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic, and to support the health and well-being of our employees, stockholders and other associates, we are providing notice that Marathon Oil Corporation (the “Company”) has changed the location of its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the Annual Meeting). The Annual Meeting will now be held in a virtual meeting (audio only) format, there will be no physical meeting, and you will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. The previously announced date and time of the meeting, Wednesday, May 27, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. Central Time, will not change.
 
As described in the proxy materials previously distributed in connection with the Annual Meeting, stockholders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on March 31, 2020, the record date, are entitled to participate in the Annual Meeting. You can attend the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MRO2020 (the Virtual Meeting Website), by entering the 16-digit control number found on your proxy card, voting instruction form or notice you previously received.

Authenticated stockholders admitted to the Annual Meeting may submit questions, vote your shares electronically and view our list of stockholders entitled to vote by following the instructions that will be available on the meeting website. If you do not have a control number, you may attend the Annual Meeting as a guest, but will not have the option to vote, view the stockholder list, or participate during the Meeting.

The Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. Central Time, so we encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Technicians will be ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the Virtual Meeting, and a technical support number will be posted on the Virtual Meeting login page.

A recording of the webcast of the 2020 Annual Meeting will be available to the public at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MRO2020 as soon as practicable after the completion of the Annual Meeting.

The proxy card and voting instruction form included with the proxy materials will not be updated to reflect the change from an in-person meeting to a virtual-only meeting and may continue to be used to vote shares in connection with the Annual Meeting. If you have already voted, no additional action is required.

Sincerely,
