EXPLANATORY NOTE

The following constitutes Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”) to the statement on Schedule 13D previously filed by the undersigned with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 1, 2015 (the “Original 13D” and, as amended through the date hereof, the “Schedule 13D”). The Schedule 13D remains in full force and effect, except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 1. The Schedule 13D is filed by the Reporting Persons as defined in Item 2 of the Original 13D. The Schedule 13D relates to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Common Stock”), of Univar Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Original 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) and (b).

The Reporting Persons beneficially own an aggregate of 40,585,412 Shares of Common Stock. The Shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Reporting Persons represent, in the aggregate, approximately 29.4% of the outstanding Shares of Common Stock. The percentages of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on an aggregate of 138,006,439 Shares of Common Stock outstanding as of August 12, 2016, based on information provided to the Reporting Persons by the Issuer.

CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. directly owns 40,585,412 Shares of Common Stock. CD&R Associates VIII, Ltd. is the general partner of CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. CD&R Associates VIII, L.P. is the sole stockholder of CD&R Associates VIII, Ltd., and CD&R Investment Associates VIII, Ltd. is the general partner of CD&R Associates VIII, L.P. Each of CD&R Associates VIII, Ltd., CD&R Associates VIII, L.P. and CD&R Investment Associates VIII, Ltd. expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the Shares held by CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P.

CD&R Investment Associates VIII, Ltd. is managed by a two-person board of directors, consisting of Donald J. Gogel and Kevin J. Conway. Messrs. Gogel and Conway, as the directors of CD&R Investment Associates VIII, Ltd., may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the Shares shown as beneficially owned by CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. Such persons expressly disclaim such beneficial ownership, and also expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of any Shares beneficially owned by Univar N.V., the Temasek Investor and any other party to the Stockholders Agreement and their respective affiliates. All investment and voting decisions with respect to shares held by CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. are made by an investment committee of limited partners of CD&R Associates VIII, L.P., currently consisting of more than ten individuals (the “Investment Committee”). All members of the Investment Committee disclaim beneficial ownership of the Shares shown as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons and any Shares beneficially owned by Univar N.V., the Temasek Investor and any other party to the Stockholders Agreement and their respective affiliates.

On August 18, 2016, Univar N.V. sold 20,527,358 shares of Common Stock in a registered offering (the “Univar N.V. Sale”). Univar N.V. is party to the Stockholders Agreement pursuant to which certain stockholders were granted registration rights and the right to nominate certain directors of the Issuer. As a result of the Univar N.V. Sale, the CVC Funds ceased to beneficially own shares of Common Stock owned by Univar N.V. As a result, such persons ceased to have the right to nominate directors pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement and will not be subject to the voting arrangement contained in the Stockholders Agreement. As a result of the Univar N.V. Sale, all of the directors nominated by the CVC Funds resigned from the board of directors of the Issuer on August 18, 2016. Univar N.V. will continue to hold 3,785,855 shares after the Univar N.V. Sale, which will be beneficially owned by investment funds affiliated with Parcom. Also as a result of the Univar N.V. Sale, the CVC Funds are no longer part of a “group” with the Reporting Persons and the Temasek Investor for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

By virtue of the Stockholders Agreement and the obligations and rights thereunder, the Reporting Persons and the Temasek Investor may be deemed to constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Temasek Investor. As of the date of this filing, based in part on information provided by the Issuer, such a “group” would be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 63,222,096 Shares of Common Stock, or 45.8% of the Common Stock of the Issuer. This filing shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons and the Temasek Investor constitute a “group” for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership over any Shares of Common Stock owned by the Temasek Investor that they may be deemed to beneficially own solely by reason of the Stockholders Agreement, as well as any Shares of Common Stock owned by any other party to the Stockholders Agreement and their respective affiliates. Shares of Common Stock owned by the Temasek Investor are not included in this Statement.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 and Item 4, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person identified in Item 2 has engaged in any transaction during the past 60 days in any Shares of Common Stock.

(d) To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, no one other than the Reporting Persons, or the partners, members, affiliates or shareholders of the Reporting Persons has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the Shares of Common Stock that are the subject of this Statement.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Stockholders Agreement

The Issuer entered into the Stockholders Agreement, with CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V., the Temasek Investor and the other stockholders party thereto, on June 23, 2015.

Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. and Univar N.V. will each be entitled to designate (i) three sponsor directors and three independent directors for so long as CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. or Univar N.V., as applicable, owns at least 50% of the Shares of Common Stock held by it or its affiliated funds on November 30, 2010, or any shares or other securities into which or for which such Shares may have been converted or exchanged in connection with any exchange, reclassification, dividend, distribution, stock split, combination, subdivision, merger, spin-off, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction (the “Original Shares”), (ii) two sponsor directors and one independent director for so long as CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. or Univar N.V., as applicable, owns at least 25%, but less than 50%, of its Original Shares and (iii) one sponsor director for so long as CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. or Univar N.V., as applicable, owns at least 5%, but less than 25%, of its Original Shares. CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. will also have the right to nominate the chairman of the board of directors for so long as it owns at least 25% of its Original Shares. The Temasek Investor will have the right to nominate one director for so long as the Temasek Investor owns at least 10% of the outstanding Shares of Common Stock. With respect to any vacancy of a director nominated by either CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V. or the Temasek Investor, the applicable entity will have the right to nominate his replacement. For as long as CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V. and the Temasek Investor have the right to designate a director, CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V. and the Temasek Investor will be required to vote their Shares of Common Stock in favor of all those persons nominated to serve as a director pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement. As a result of the Univar N.V. Sale, Univar N.V. is no longer subject to this voting arrangement and no longer has the right to designate any members of the Issuer’s board of directors. The initial sponsor directors appointed by CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P. were David H. Wasserman, a director of the Issuer since November 2010 and a principal of CD&R, which he joined in 1998, George K. Jaquette, a director of the Issuer from November 2010 to March 2016 and a principal of CD&R, which he joined in 1999, and William S. Stavropoulos, the non-executive chairman of the Issuer since November 2010 and an Advisory Partner to CD&R since 2006. In March 2016, Mr. Jaquette retired as a director of the Issuer in conjunction with his retirement from CD&R and was replaced as a director of the Issuer in March 2016 by Stephen W. Shapiro, a principal of CD&R.

On August 18, 2016, in connection with the Univar N.V. Sale, Lars Haegg and Christopher J. Stadler resigned as the Univar N.V. designated members of the Board of Directors of Univar Inc. and Univar N.V. no longer has any board designation rights and is no longer subject to the aforementioned voting arrangement contained in the Stockholders Agreement.

CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V., the Temasek Investor and certain other stockholders are subject to certain restrictions on transfers of the Issuer’s Shares under the Stockholders Agreement. The Stockholders Agreement also contains customary registration rights for the Shares of Common Stock held by CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P., Univar N.V., the Temasek Investor and certain other stockholders, as well as customary information and access rights.

The description herein of the terms and conditions of the Stockholders Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Stockholders Agreement, included as Exhibit 4 to the Original 13D, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The information set forth in Items 3 and 4 of the Original 13D is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

Goldman, Sachs & Co.

200 West Street

New York, New York 10282

Re: Univar Inc. — Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that you propose to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Univar Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and the Selling Shareholders named in Schedule I to such agreement providing for a public offering (the “Public Offering”) of common stock, $0.01 par value (the “Stock”) of the Company (the “Shares”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

In consideration of the agreement by you to offer and sell the Shares, and of other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees that, during the period specified in the following paragraph (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not, without your prior written consent, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of any shares of Stock of the Company, or any options or warrants to purchase any shares of Stock of the Company, or any securities convertible into, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Stock of the Company, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, owned directly by the undersigned (including holding as a custodian) or with respect to which the undersigned has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC (collectively the “Undersigned’s Shares”) (other than the sale of any shares of Stock acquired after the Public Offering that is not required to be reported in any public report or filing with the SEC and regarding which the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report). The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude the undersigned from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Undersigned’s Shares even if such Shares would be disposed of by someone other than the undersigned. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions would include without limitation any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any of the Undersigned’s Shares or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Shares.

The Lock-Up Period will commence on the date hereof (the “Public Offering Date”) and continue for 30 days thereafter.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer the Undersigned’s Shares without your prior written consent:

(i) to the Underwriter pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement;

(ii) pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Stock involving a Change of Control (as defined below) of the Company, provided that in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is abandoned, the Undersigned’s Shares shall remain subject to the restrictions hereunder; or

(iii) as a bona fide gift or gifts; or

(iv) to any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned (for purposes of this Lock-Up Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); or

(v) as a distribution to partners, members or stockholders of the undersigned; or

(vi) to the undersigned’s subsidiaries, affiliates or to any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under common control or management with, the undersigned; or

(vii) to the Company to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise of options to purchase Stock; or

(viii) as transfers of shares of Stock by the undersigned in connection with bona fide gifts of such shares of Stock to charitable organizations by certain partners and employees of the undersigned, its affiliates or any investment fund or other entity controlled or managed by, or under common control or management with, the undersigned;

provided, however, that (1) in the case of clauses (iii)-(vi) and (viii) above, you shall have received a signed lock-up agreement for the balance of the Lock-Up Period from each donee, trustee, distributee, or transferee, as the case may be, prior to such transfer; (2) such transfers (other than those described above in (i), (ii) and (vii)) shall not involve a disposition for value; and (3) the undersigned does not otherwise voluntarily effect any public filing or report regarding a transfer made pursuant to clauses (i) to (viii) above. For purposes of clause (ii) above, “Change of Control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the 1934 Act), or group of persons, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 of the 1934 Act) of a majority of total voting power of the voting stock of the Company.

Nothing in this agreement shall prevent the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of shares of Stock, provided that such plan (1) does not provide for the transfer of Stock during the Lock-up Period, (2) is not required to be reported and is not voluntarily reported in any public report or filing with the SEC during the first 95 days following the Public Offering Date.

The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the Undersigned’s Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

The undersigned understands that you and the Company are relying upon this Lock-Up Agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the offering. The undersigned further understands that this Lock-Up Agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors, and assigns.

Very truly yours,

CD&R Univar Holdings, L.P.
