Dear Shareholder

The seventh Annual General Meeting of the Company is to be held at the London Heathrow Marriott Hotel, Bath Road, Hayes, Middlesex UB3 5AN on Wednesday, 7 May 2014 at 11.15 am. The formal Notice of Meeting will be found on pages 4 to 6 of this document. In addition to the routine business of an Annual General Meeting (AGM) there are a number of items of special business to be transacted at the meeting.

Ordinary Resolutions

Resolutions 1 to 17 are to be proposed as Ordinary Resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, more than half of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

Annual Report

Resolution 1 is to receive the Company's accounts for the financial year ended 31 December 2013 together with the reports of the Directors and the Auditors.

Remuneration Report – Resolutions 2 and 3

In line with the new reporting regulations that came into effect on 1 October 2013, this year's Directors' Remuneration Report, set out in full on pages 34 to 46 of the Company's Annual Report, is split into three parts: the Annual Statement from the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee, a Policy Report on Directors' remuneration and an Annual Report on Remuneration.

The new regulations require the Company to offer its Shareholders a binding vote on its forward-looking remuneration policy at least every three years. This forward-looking policy is set out in the Policy Report. A separate advisory vote is required to approve the policies relating to the Directors' remuneration for the year ended 31 December 2013, as set out in the Annual Report on Remuneration.

Resolution 2 is an ordinary resolution to approve the Directors' Remuneration Policy, which is set out on pages 35 to 40 of the Annual Report.

If Resolution 2 is approved, all payments by the Company to the Directors and former Directors must be made in accordance with the Directors' Remuneration Policy. The policy will remain valid until the earlier of (a) the expiration of three years from the date of approval or (b) a payment outside the terms of the policy is anticipated or proposed, at which point the Directors will seek Shareholders' approval for an updated Directors' Remuneration Policy.

Resolution 3 is an ordinary resolution to approve the policies set out in the Annual Report on Remuneration section of the Directors' Remuneration Report on pages 40 to 46 of the Annual Report.

Final Dividend

Resolution 4 seeks Shareholders' approval for the final dividend recommended by the Directors for the year ended 31 December 2013 of 77p per share. An interim dividend of 60p per share was paid on 26 September 2013, making a total dividend for the year of 137p per share. If approved, the final dividend will be paid on 29 May 2014 to those Shareholders on the register at the close of business on 21 February 2014.

Re-election and Election of Directors – Resolutions 5 to 13 Resolutions 5 to 13 seek the election and re-election of the

Company's Directors.

Excluding Richard Cousins, who retires and will not offer himself for re-election, all other Directors of the Company will submit themselves for election or re-election at the 2014 AGM in accordance with recommendations of the UK Corporate Governance Code.

Nicandro Durante was appointed to the Board as a Non-Executive Director on 1 December 2013. In accordance with the Company's Articles of Association, he will offer himself for election at the AGM having been appointed since the date of the AGM held in 2013. Nicandro is Chief Executive Officer of British American Tobacco p.l.c., a FTSE 100 multinational company with brands sold in 180 markets, where he has had an extensive career since joining in 1981. He has held various commercial and financial roles, becoming Chief Operating Officer in January 2008 and Chief Executive Officer in March 2011. Nicandro brings experience of a highly regulated and innovation-led industry, alongside extensive emerging markets' experience, having worked in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Your Directors are delighted that Nicandro has joined us. He will bring a wealth of international consumer goods and financial knowledge to the Board and further international diversity, and I am sure he will make a significant contribution to the future success of RB.

The formal performance evaluation process in 2013 was externally facilitated and, following this evaluation, I am satisfied that each of the Directors continues to perform effectively and demonstrates commitment to his or her role.

Three Non-Executive Directors and I have served on the Board for a period exceeding ten years. Peter Harf is a Shareholder-nominated Director who was not independent on appointment. I was independent on appointment. Additionally, Kenneth Hydon and Judith Sprieser have served for ten years on the Board as at 31 December 2013. Prior to recommending the Directors for re-election, the Board undertakes a detailed review of each Director's tenure and contributions. The Board considers each Director to be independent in character and judgement

notwithstanding their length of tenure. However in recognition of their length of service, Judith and Kenneth will step down as Chairs of the Remuneration and Audit Committees respectively before the end of the year, upon completion of this year's exercise to refresh the composition of the Board.

The role and composition of the Board, including its diversity credentials, are discussed in the Corporate Governance Report on pages 26 to 32 of the Annual Report.

Biographical details of all the Directors are set out on page 20 of the Annual Report and further details are available on our website www.rb.com.

Auditors

Resolutions 14 and 15 deal with the re-appointment and remuneration of the Auditors.

Political Donations

Resolution 16 seeks to renew the authority from Shareholders to enable the Company or its UK subsidiaries to make political donations or incur political expenditure in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act).

The Company has no intention of changing its or its UK subsidiaries' current practice of not making political donations and will not do so without the specific endorsement of its Shareholders. However, the 2006 Act defines political parties, other political organisations or independent election candidates widely and it is possible that they may include, for example, bodies concerned with policy review and law reform, with the representation of the business community or sections of it or with the representation of other UK or EU communities or special interest groups which may be in the Company's or its UK subsidiaries' interest to support.

The Company considers that the authority sought under this resolution to allow it or its UK subsidiaries to incur this type of expenditure up to a total aggregate limit of £50,000 is advisable, principally to ensure that the Company does not unintentionally breach the 2006 Act because of uncertainty over which bodies are covered by the definition of an EU political organisation. No political donations or expenditure of the type requiring disclosure under the 2006 Act were made in the year ended 31 December 2013 nor are any contemplated but, on a precautionary basis, the Directors believe it is appropriate to request the authority sought.

Authority to Allot Shares

Resolution 17 seeks to renew the Directors' authority to allot shares. Under the 2006 Act, the Directors may not allot shares unless authorised to do so by the Shareholders in general meeting. If passed, this resolution would give the Directors the authority to allot shares or grant rights to subscribe for or convert any securities into shares up to an aggregate nominal amount equal to £20,800,000 (representing 208,000,000 ordinary shares of 10p each). This amount represents the authorised but unissued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 7 March 2014, being the latest practicable date prior to publication of this Notice.

The authority sought under this resolution will expire at the earlier of 30 June 2015 or the conclusion of the AGM of the Company held in 2015.

The Directors have no present intention to exercise the authority sought under this resolution other than to fulfil the Company's obligations under its executive and employee share plans. As at 7 March 2014, the Company held 16,402,709 ordinary shares in Treasury.

Special Resolutions

Resolutions 18 to 20 will be proposed as Special Resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, at least three-quarters of the votes cast must be in favour of the resolution.

Disapplication of Pre-emption Rghts

Resolution 18 will authorise the Directors to allot shares for cash as if Shareholders' statutory pre-emption rights did not apply to such allotment up to an amount of £3,500,000 representing less than 5% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 7 March 2014, being the latest practicable date prior to the 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, where the Principles provide that usage in excess of 7.5% should not take place without prior consultation with Shareholders.

This authority will expire on the earlier of 30 June 2015 or the date of the Company's AGM in 2015.

Purchase of Own Shares

Authority was given to the Directors at the AGM held in 2013 to make market purchases (within the meaning of s693(4) of the 2006 Act) of ordinary shares in the capital of the Company subject to certain conditions, such authority to expire on the date of the AGM to be held in 2014. During 2013, the Company purchased 6,000,000 of its own shares at a total cost of £278,192,079.41, exclusive of expenses. Resolution 19 seeks Shareholders' consent to the purchase by the Company of up to a maximum of 73,000,000 ordinary shares (representing less than 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at 7 March 2014) for a period up to the date of the Company's AGM in 2015.

The total number of options to subscribe for ordinary shares outstanding as at 7 March 2014 was 23,980,181 (representing approximately 3.26% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company at that date). If the authority to repurchase shares under this resolution was exercised in full, the total number of options to subscribe for ordinary shares outstanding at 7 March 2014 would, assuming no further ordinary shares are issued after that date, represent 3.61% of the issued ordinary share capital. The authority is only exercised in circumstances where the Directors expect that such purchases will result in an improvement in earnings per share and will be in the best interests of Shareholders generally.

Notice of General Meetings

Resolution 20 is required to renew the authority granted at the AGM in 2013 for the calling of general meetings. The Company is currently able to call general meetings (other than an AGM) on 14 clear days' notice subject to the approval of Shareholders in general meeting.

Shareholders passed an enabling resolution at the AGM held in May 2013, and this authority is effective until the AGM to be held in May 2014. The Company will therefore be proposing a renewal of this authority in order to preserve this ability.

Poll Voting on AGM Resolutions

Your Board intends to continue the practice of voting on all resolutions by way of a poll rather than voting on a show of hands.

Action to be Taken

If you are unable to attend the AGM but wish to register your vote on the business to be transacted at the meeting, please complete the form of proxy in accordance with the instructions printed thereon and return it to Computershare Investor Services PLC, Registrar's Office, The Pavilions, Bridgwater Road, Bristol BS99 6ZY

so as to arrive not later than 11.15 am on 2 May 2014, the voting record date. Completion and return of the proxy form will not preclude you from attending and voting in person at the AGM if you so wish. Please note that there is the facility to register your proxy vote online if you so wish. Details of how to use this facility are shown on the proxy form.

New Shareholders should note that, in order to have the right to attend and vote at the meeting, their holding should be registered on the Company's share register by close of business on 2 May 2014.

Recommendation

The Directors believe that the passing of the resolutions to be proposed at the AGM is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole and is most likely to promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its Shareholders as a whole. They accordingly unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of the resolutions, which they intend to do in respect of their own shareholdings.

Results of voting on all resolutions following completion of the poll procedures will be announced via the Regulatory News Service and will be posted on our corporate website.

Yours sincerely,

Adrian Bellamy Chairman

Notes

• 1 Shareholders are 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 meeting. A Shareholder may appoint more than one proxy in relation to the AGM provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to a different share or shares held by that Shareholder. A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. A proxy form which may be used to make such appointment and give proxy instructions accompanies this Notice. If you do not have a proxy form and believe that you should have one, or if you require additional forms, please contact the Reckitt Benckiser Shareholder helpline on 0870 703 0118 or www.investorcentre.co.uk/contactus. In accordance with s333A of the 2006 Act, the completed proxy form can be delivered to the following electronic address www.eproxyappointment.com
• 2 To be valid any proxy form or other instrument appointing a proxy must be received by post or (during normal business hours only) by hand at the Company's Registrar in each case no later than two business days before the meeting. CREST and internet voting are the only acceptable electronic addresses for receiving proxy information.
• 3 No proxy may be authorised to exercise votes which any other proxy has been authorised to exercise.
• 4 The proxy form must be signed and dated by the Shareholder or his/her attorney duly authorised in writing. If the Shareholder is a company, it may execute by the signatures(s) of a duly authorised officer or attorney. In the case of joint holdings, any one holder may sign the proxy form. The vote of the senior joint holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders and for this purpose seniority will be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members in respect of the joint holding.
• 5 The return of a completed proxy form, other such instrument or any CREST Proxy Instruction (as described in paragraphs 10–11 below) will not prevent a Shareholder attending the AGM and voting in person if he/she wishes to do so.
• 6 Any person to whom this Notice is sent who is a person nominated under s146 of the 2006 Act to enjoy information rights (a Nominated Person) may, under an agreement between him/her and the Shareholder by whom he/she was nominated, have a right to be appointed (or to have someone else appointed) as a proxy for the AGM. If a Nominated Person has no such proxy appointment right or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may, under any such agreement, have a right to give instructions to the Shareholder as to the exercise of voting rights.
• 7 The statement of the rights of Shareholders in relation to the appointment of proxies in paragraphs 1 and 2 above does not apply to Nominated Persons. The rights described in these paragraphs can only be exercised by Shareholders of the Company.
• 8 To be entitled to attend and vote at the AGM (and for the purpose of the determination by the Company of the votes they may cast), Shareholders must be registered in the Register of Members of the Company by close of business on 2 May 2014 (or, in the event of any adjournment, on the date which is two business days before the time of the adjourned meeting). Changes to the Register of Members after the relevant deadline shall be disregarded in determining the rights of any person to attend and vote at the meeting.
• 9 As at 7 March 2014 (being the last practicable business day prior to the publication of this Notice) the Company's issued share capital consisted of 736,535,179 ordinary shares, 16,402,709 of which were held as treasury shares. Therefore, the total voting rights in the Company as at 7 March 2014 are 720,132,470.

• 10 CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual. CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a 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.

• 11 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 instruction, as described in the CREST Manual (available via www.euroclear.com/CREST). The message, regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or is 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 issuer's agent (ID 3RA50) by the latest time 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 time stamp applied to the message by the CREST Application Host) from which the issuer's agent 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.

• 12 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 message. 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, 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 connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting system providers are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.
• 13 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.
• 14 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.
• 15 Shareholders should note that it is possible that, pursuant to requests made by Shareholders of the Company under s527 of the 2006 Act, the Company may be required 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 s437 of the 2006 Act. The Company may not require the Shareholders requesting any such website publication to pay its expenses in complying with s527 or s528 of the 2006 Act. Where the Company is required to place a statement on a website under s527 of the 2006 Act it must forward the statement to the Company's Auditor not 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 s527 of the 2006 Act to publish on a website.
