Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to invite you to the Company’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) which will be held at the Circustheater, Circusstraat 4, 2586 CW The Hague, The Netherlands on Tuesday May 24, 2016.

Whilst this will be my first AGM since becoming Chairman last year, I was pleased to chair the General Meeting held in January of this year when shareholders voted in favour of the recommended combination between Royal Dutch Shell plc and BG Group plc (BG). The shareholders of BG also voted in favour of the combination the day following our General Meeting.

BUSINESS OF THE AGM

The business to be conducted at the AGM is set out in this Notice with explanatory notes concerning each of the resolutions. The business is mainly of a routine nature for a listed company and your Board recommends that you vote in favour of Resolutions 1 to 18. However, we have also received a shareholder resolution pursuant to Section 338 of the Companies Act 2006 and, for the reasons explained in the Explanatory Notes to this Notice, your Board recommends that you vote against this resolution (Resolution 19).

The AGM will be conducted in English although there will be Dutch translation facilities available.

DIRECTORS

In line with the UK Corporate Governance Code, all Directors will retire at the AGM and seek reappointment by shareholders.

I believe that each of the reappointments proposed in Resolutions 3 to 13 are in the best interests of the Company. The biographical details of each Director are given on pages 6 and 7 and I hope you will vote in support of these resolutions.

QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSION

The AGM provides an opportunity for you to ask questions about the business set out in this Notice and to raise other matters about the business of the Company. As Chairman of the AGM, I will endeavour to ensure that discussions are kept relevant and that as many shareholders as possible have the opportunity to speak.

VOTING

All resolutions for consideration at the AGM will be decided on a poll rather than a show of hands. This means that a shareholder has one vote for every share held. If you are not able to come to the AGM in person, I would urge you to vote by following the guidance notes on pages 11 to 13.

Yours sincerely,

Chad Holliday

Chairman

March 11, 2016

NOTE TO RESOLUTION 1

Annual Report and Accounts

The Board of Directors will present the Company’s annual accounts for the financial year ended December 31, 2015, together with the Directors’ report and the Auditor’s report on those accounts.

NOTE TO RESOLUTION 2

Consideration and approval of the Directors’ Remuneration Report

Resolution 2 is an advisory vote and seeks approval for the Directors’ Remuneration Report for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Report has been prepared and is laid before the meeting in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.

Shareholders approved a resolution at the 2014 AGM in relation to the Directors’ Remuneration Policy. The Company must seek approval for a similar resolution each year unless the policy is left unchanged, in which case shareholder approval need only be sought every three years. The approved policy is shown for information purposes in the Directors’ Remuneration Report on pages 98 to 105.

NOTES TO RESOLUTIONS 3 TO 13

Retirement and reappointment of Directors

In line with the UK Corporate Governance Code, all Directors will retire at the AGM and seek reappointment by shareholders. Their biographical details are given on pages 6 and 7.

NOTES TO RESOLUTIONS 14 AND 15

Reappointment of Auditor and determination of Auditor’s remuneration

The Company is required to appoint an Auditor for each financial year of the Company, to hold office until the conclusion of the next general meeting at which accounts are laid before the Company. Following a competitive tender process and on the recommendation of the Audit Committee, the Board will appoint Ernst & Young LLP as Auditor of the Company to fill the casual vacancy which will be created upon the resignation of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on April 11, 2016 following the completion of its audit of the Company’s 2015 accounts. Accordingly, shareholder approval is being sought now to reappoint Ernst & Young LLP as Auditor of the Company.

As required by company law, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will provide the Company with a ‘statement of reasons’ confirming that it resigned as auditor of the Company following the tender process. The Company will arrange for a copy of the ‘statement of reasons’ to be sent to shareholders.

Resolution 15 seeks authority for the Audit Committee of the Board to determine the level of the Auditor’s remuneration.

NOTE TO RESOLUTION 17

Disapplication of pre-emption rights

This resolution will be proposed as a special resolution, which requires at least three-quarters of the votes cast to be in favour. It would give the Directors the authority to allot ordinary shares (or sell any ordinary shares which the Company elects to hold in treasury) for cash without first offering them to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings.

This authority would be, similar to previous years, limited to allotments or sales in connection with pre-emptive offers to ordinary shareholders and offers to holders of other equity securities, if required by the rights of those securities or as the Board otherwise considers necessary, or otherwise up to an aggregate nominal amount of €27 million (representing 385,714,285 ordinary shares of €0.07 each). This aggregate nominal amount represents, in accordance with institutional investor guidelines, approximately 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at March 11, 2016, the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice. In respect of this aggregate nominal amount, the Directors confirm their intention to follow the provisions of the Pre-Emption Group’s Statement of Principles regarding cumulative usage of authorities within a rolling three-year period without prior consultation with shareholders.

The authority will expire at the earlier of the close of business on August 24, 2017, and the end of the AGM of the Company to be held in 2017. The Directors have no immediate plans to make use of this authority.

NOTE TO RESOLUTION 18

Renewal of authority to make market purchases of ordinary shares

This resolution will be proposed as a special resolution, which requires at least three-quarters of the votes cast to be in favour. Authority is sought for the Company to purchase up to 10% of its issued ordinary shares (excluding any treasury shares), renewing the authority granted by the shareholders at previous AGMs. The Board regards the ability to repurchase issued shares in suitable circumstances as an important part of the financial management of the Company.

The Directors confirm that they will exercise the ongoing buy-back authority only when, in the light of prevailing market conditions, they consider that such purchases would result in an increase in earnings per share and would be in the best interests of the shareholders generally. The Board is making no recommendation as to whether shareholders should sell their ordinary shares in the Company. The Company did not purchase any ordinary shares in the period from the last AGM to March 11, 2016, under the existing authority.

Ordinary shares purchased by the Company pursuant to this authority will either be cancelled or held in treasury. Treasury shares are shares in the Company which are owned by the Company itself. The Company currently has no ordinary shares in treasury.

The minimum price, exclusive of expenses, which may be paid for an ordinary share is €0.07. The maximum price, exclusive of expenses, which may be paid for an ordinary share is the higher of: (i) an amount equal to 5% above the average market value for an ordinary share for the five business days immediately preceding the date of the purchase; and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out.

The Company has no warrants in issue in relation to its shares and no options to subscribe for its shares outstanding.

The authority will expire at the earlier of the close of business on August 24, 2017, and the end of the AGM of the Company to be held in 2017.

SHAREHOLDER RESOLUTION

Resolution 19 is a special resolution and has been requisitioned by a group of shareholders, who have also requested that the Company circulates the statement set out below. The Company is legally required to circulate this statement to you; however, your Board would like to make clear that it does not endorse this statement and neither your Board nor the Company is responsible for its contents or for any inaccurate or misleading statements contained in it.

Supporting statement

As shareholders in Shell, we want you to know that we expect the company to move in a new direction. We want Shell to change course and make the move to sustainable energy. We know you can make a difference.

Summary

Given the new realities in the energy market we ask Shell to embark on a new strategy. We support Shell as a leading energy company to become a renewable energy company. Given our vision that Shell is one of the most innovative companies in the oil and gas industry, we are convinced Shell is the right oil major to change course.

We therefore ask Shell to continue to take the profits from its existing oil and gas fields (for as long as they are there) and to invest these profits (after paying dividend) in renewable energy.

We want Shell to stop the exploration and acquisition of more oil and gas and we want Shell to invest the thus freed cashflow in renewable energy.

As Shell’s CEO Ben van Beurden has put it: “An organisation that has so many qualities, so much expertise, so much capital, has to be able to reinvent itself.”

We ask the board to make the right investment decisions, in the interest of all stakeholders of the company; clients, personnel, shareholders and society. For the future of Shell.

You have our support

DIRECTORS’ RESPONSE

Your Directors consider that Resolution 19 is not in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole and unanimously recommend that you vote AGAINST Resolution 19 for the reasons set out below.

The Board of Directors thanks Follow This for their resolution and for their confidence and trust in the Company’s management and staff’s ability to play a positive role in the energy transition. Indeed, Shell has a track record of adapting its business model and delivering profitable growth in new energy sources like LNG and biofuels. We have reduced our direct greenhouse gas emissions by over 35% from their peak. Our long-term success will depend on our ability to anticipate the types of energy and fuels that people will need in the future, in a way that is commercially competitive and environmentally relevant.

We recognise that achieving a decent quality of life for everyone on the planet is driving demand for more energy in cities and economies but this cannot take place at the expense of the planet. So the big challenge that is facing us now is how the world can produce and consume much more energy while emitting much less CO₂. While we only supply 1% of the world-wide energy supply and 2% of global oil and gas, we continue to try and be a progressive voice in the industry, advocating pragmatic measures in the global discussion on energy and tackling climate change. Government-led carbon-pricing is a case in point.

However, we recognise we need to play our part too, which is why we intend to reduce our carbon intensity ahead of global movements while also continuing to improve the energy efficiency of our operations. We are one of the world’s largest natural gas producers, which is the cleanest-burning hydrocarbon. In addition, we have commercial operations in biofuels, hydrogen, wind and solar, where we have some $1.75 billion of capital employed. Furthermore, previously we have had research and development programmes of around $150 million per year in lower carbon technology.

Our joint venture in Brazil is one of the country’s largest bioethanol companies, while in Germany we supply hydrogen fuel for cars, with a joint venture which intends to open 400 such sites by early in the next decade, and expand to other European countries and the United States. These, and other technologies, should contribute to our profitability and returns to shareholders in the decades to come.

Lives and livelihoods, economies and communities depend on convenient, reliable and affordable energy – from power to plastics and heating to transport to prosper and grow. While some countries and some sectors of the economy are better able to decarbonise in the coming decades, others, like petrochemical feed-stocks and steel manufacture, will require more time to develop technological solutions and alternatives to fossil fuels. If companies stopped investing in oil and gas today, supply would very quickly run out – long before alternatives at scale were viable.

The reason the Board recommends that shareholders vote AGAINST this proposal is twofold:

1) We believe that the scale of investment that is required to deliver safe, low cost and reliable energy for customers; the multi-decades timescales required for energy transitions; and the risk of reduced returns to shareholders from an accelerated shift into renewables, means it would be unwise for Shell to simply swap investment in oil and gas for renewables, and

2) we want the Company to be able to respond to the opportunities and risks that lie ahead – tying the Company’s hands to a renewables only mandate would be strategically and commercially unwise.

Shell believes its current strategy positions the Company effectively for the energy transition to a two-degree world, for example, by improving our energy efficiency, portfolio actions, growing gas in the near term, and the growth of new, profitable, lower carbon energies over the longer term.

1. ATTENDANCE AND APPOINTMENT OF A PROXY

If you wish to attend the AGM or appoint a proxy to attend, speak and vote on your behalf, please see the relevant section below depending on the way you hold your shares.

There are several ways in which Royal Dutch Shell plc ordinary shares or an interest in those shares can be held. These include:

•

directly as registered shares in certificated or uncertificated form in a shareholder’s own name;

•

through the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee;

•

indirectly through Euroclear Nederland (via banks or brokers); or

•

as a direct or indirect holder of either A or B American Depositary Shares (ADSs) with the Depositary (The Bank of New York Mellon).

Any person to whom this Notice is sent who is a person that has been nominated under Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 to enjoy information rights (“nominated persons”) does not have a right to appoint a proxy. However, a nominated person may, under an agreement with the registered shareholder by whom he or she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the AGM. Alternatively, if a nominated person does not have such a right, or does not wish to exercise it, he or she may have a right under any such agreement to give instructions to the registered shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.

Shareholders with registered shares in their own name or holding their shares through the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee

•

Registered holders of shares or shareholders who hold their shares in the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee, or their duly appointed representatives, are entitled to attend, speak and vote at the AGM.

•

Entitlement to attend and vote at the AGM will be determined by reference to the Company’s Register of Members. In order to attend and vote at the AGM, a person must be entered on the Register of Members or the register of the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee no later than 19:00 (Dutch time), 18:00 (UK time) on Friday May 20, 2016. A shareholder’s voting entitlement will depend on the number of shares held at that time. If the AGM is adjourned, such entitlement is determined by reference to the Register of Members or the register of the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee at 19:00 (Dutch time), 18:00 (UK time), two working days before the date of the adjourned AGM.

•

A shareholder is entitled to appoint a proxy to exercise all or any of their rights to attend and to speak and vote on their behalf at the AGM. A shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the AGM, provided each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that shareholder. A proxy need not also be a shareholder. Proxy Forms and Voting Instruction Forms must reach the Company’s Registrar no later than 18:00 (Dutch time), 17:00 (UK time) on Friday May 20, 2016. It is also possible to vote or register a proxy appointment electronically as explained below. Shareholders who have completed a Proxy Form or Voting Instruction Form may still attend the AGM and vote in person should they wish to do so, but they are requested to bring the Admittance Card with them to the AGM.

•

If a shareholder does not specify how he or she wants the proxy to vote on the particular resolutions, the proxy may vote or abstain as he or she sees fit. A proxy may also vote or abstain as he or she sees fit on any other business which properly comes before the AGM.

•

If shares are held through the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee and no voting instructions are received or specified, the Corporate Nominee will not cast the votes attached to such shares.

•

If two or more shareholders jointly hold shares in the Company, each shareholder may attend, speak and vote at the AGM, appoint a proxy or give voting instructions. However, if more than one joint holder votes, appoints a proxy or gives voting instructions, the only vote, appointment or voting instruction which will count is the vote, appointment or voting instruction of the joint holder whose name is listed first on the register.

Shareholders holding their shares through Euroclear Nederland (via banks or brokers)

Shareholders holding their shares through Euroclear Nederland B.V. (“Euroclear”) via banks and brokers are not included in the Company’s Register of Members – such shares are included in the Register of Members under the name of Euroclear.

If shareholders who hold their shares through Euroclear wish to: (i) attend the AGM; or (ii) appoint a proxy to attend, speak and vote on their behalf; or (iii) give voting instructions without attending the AGM, they must instruct Euroclear accordingly. To do this, shareholders are advised to contact their bank or broker as soon as possible and advise them which of the three options they prefer. Alternatively, shareholders can choose such options electronically by accessing the website www.abnamro.com/evoting and following the online instructions. In all cases the validity of the instruction will be conditional upon ownership of

the shares at no later than 18:00 (Dutch time), 17:00 (UK time) on Friday May 20, 2016. Any instruction, whether by hard copy or by electronic means, must be received by this time.

Shareholders holding their shares through Euroclear and who indicate they wish to attend the AGM will not receive an Admittance Card. They will therefore be asked to identify themselves at the AGM using a valid passport, identity card or driving licence.

Holders of American Depositary Shares (ADSs)

Registered ADS holders who wish to attend the AGM or wish to have their votes cast on their behalf should indicate accordingly on their Voting Instruction Form and return it to the Depositary, The Bank of New York Mellon. Those who hold their ADSs beneficially through a bank or broker and wish to attend the AGM or have their votes cast on their behalf should contact their bank or broker as soon as possible. The Depositary, The Bank of New York Mellon, can be contacted on telephone number +1 888 737 2377 (from within the USA) or +1 201 680 6825 (from outside the USA). Holders of ADSs wishing to attend the AGM will not receive an Admittance Card and will therefore be asked to identify themselves at the AGM using a valid passport, identity card or driving licence.

2. CORPORATE REPRESENTATIVES

Any corporation which is a member can appoint one or more corporate representatives who may exercise on its behalf all of its powers as a member provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

3. AGM WEBCAST

If you are unable to come to the AGM you can watch via the webcast which will be broadcast live at 10:00 (Dutch time), 09:00 (UK time) on the day of the AGM. Shareholders who wish to follow the AGM via the webcast should log on to www.shell.com/agm/webcast and follow the online instructions. The webcast is not interactive and it is not possible to vote or ask questions remotely.

The webcast may include the question and answer sessions with shareholders present at the AGM, as well as background shots of those present in the auditorium. We have also arranged for photographs to be taken throughout the premises for the duration of the event to be kept in the Company’s photo library. These photographs may be used in future publications online or in print. If you attend the AGM in person, you may be included in photographs or in the webcast. Please note that the photographs and broadcast footage may be transferred outside the European Economic Area.

4. ELECTRONIC PROXY APPOINTMENT

Registered shareholders and those who hold their shares through the Royal Dutch Shell Corporate Nominee who prefer to register a proxy appointment with the Registrar via the internet instead of by hard copy (sent by post or by hand) may do so by accessing the website www.sharevote.co.uk. Details of how to register an electronic proxy appointment and voting instructions are set out on the website, but please note the following:

•

This method of registering proxies is an alternative to the traditional hard copy appointment of proxies, which will continue unaltered. The electronic facility is available to all shareholders and those who use it will not be disadvantaged.

•

This facility provides for the electronic appointment of a proxy and not direct electronic voting. Accordingly, the person appointed as proxy will have to attend the AGM in person and vote on behalf of the shareholder.

•

No special software is required in addition to internet access.

•

To register on the website www.sharevote.co.uk it will be necessary to quote the reference numbers which are set out on the top of your Proxy Form or Voting Instruction Form. These numbers are unique to the particular holding and the 2016 AGM and contain special security aspects to prevent fraudulent replication.

•

In the interests of security, the reference numbers will not be reissued, so if you consider that you might want to register your proxy appointment or your voting instructions electronically after submitting the paper form, please retain a note of the Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number before dispatching the paper form.

•

An electronic appointment of a proxy or registration of voting instructions will not be valid if sent to any address other than submission via www.sharevote.co.uk and will not be accepted if found to contain a virus.

•

The final time for receipt of proxies is 18:00 (Dutch time), 17:00 (UK time) on Friday May 20, 2016. You may change your appointment or voting instructions by submitting a new form in either hard copy or electronic form; however, the new form must be received by the Registrar by this final time. If two valid Proxy Forms or Voting Instruction Forms are received from the same shareholder before the relevant closing time, the one last received will be counted.

5. CREST ELECTRONIC PROXY APPOINTMENT

CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the AGM and any adjournment(s) thereof by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a “CREST Proxy Instruction”) must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited’s specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com). The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the Registrar (ID RA 19) by the latest time(s) for receipt of proxy appointments specified in this Notice. For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the Registrar is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers, should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this regard, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers, are referred in particular to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

6. AUDIT CONCERNS

Under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 shareholders meeting the threshold requirements set out in that section have the right to require the Company to publish on a website a statement setting out any matter relating to: (i) the audit of the Company’s accounts (including the Auditor’s report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the AGM; or (ii) any circumstance connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the previous meeting at which annual accounts and reports were laid in accordance with Section 437 of the Companies Act 2006. The Company may not require the shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with Sections 527 or 528 of the Companies Act 2006. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006, it must forward the statement to the Company’s auditor no later than the time when it makes the statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the AGM includes any statement that the Company has been required under Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 to publish on a website.

7. SHAREHOLDERS’ RIGHT TO ASK QUESTIONS

Any shareholder attending the AGM has the right to ask questions. The Company must cause to be answered any such question relating to the business being dealt with at the AGM but no such answer need be given if: (i) to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the AGM or involve the disclosure of confidential information; (ii) the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or (iii) it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the AGM that the question be answered. See also “How to ask a question” on page 14.

8. SHAREHOLDERS’ RIGHTS UNDER SECTIONS 338 AND 338A OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006

Under Section 338 and Section 338A of the Companies Act 2006, shareholders meeting the threshold requirements in those sections have the right to require the Company: (i) to give to shareholders of the Company entitled to receive Notice, notice of a resolution which may properly be moved and is intended to be moved at the AGM; and/or (ii) to include in the business to be dealt with at the AGM any matter (other than a proposed resolution) which may be properly included in the business. A resolution may properly be moved or a matter may properly be included in the business unless (a) (in the case of a resolution only) it would, if passed, be ineffective (whether by reason of inconsistency with any enactment or the company’s constitution or otherwise), (b) it is defamatory of any person, or (c) it is frivolous or vexatious. Such a request may be in hard copy form or in electronic form, must identify the resolution of which notice is to be given or the matter to be included in the business, must be authenticated by the person or persons making it, must be received by the Company no later than Monday April 11, 2016, being the date six clear weeks before the AGM, and (in the case of a matter to be included in the business only) must be accompanied by a statement setting out the grounds for the request.
