On top of all the costs you can think of that BP is going to have to pay for the next 5 years for this huge environmental disaster. They have also done some permanent damage to their reputation and the brand.
Not too mention, now they are still going to pay that dividend, I think this (stupid) move will cost BP dearly in the medium to long run as long as Obama is in office for the next 3 years of 7 years if he gets re-elected.
A lot these big oil company's deal making needs to have good relationship with State and Federal Government officials, they are not going to make any friends with that dividend payment.
