Notice of Availability of Shareholder Documents + 2020 AGM Attendance/ Admittance Card

Dear Shareholder,

The Company's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") is currently scheduled to be held at the Circustheater, Circusstraat 4, 2586 CW The Hague, The Netherlands at 10:00 (Dutch time) on Tuesday May 19, 2020.

However, the evolving coronavirus pandemic continues to pose significant public health concerns with an uncertain outlook. At the time of drafting this Notice, the Dutch and UK governments have placed significant restrictions on public gatherings. As safety is our priority interest, the AGM is subject to change and/or postponement, possibly at short notice.

Given the uncertainty of the health and public safety situation in May, we respectfully encourage shareholders to reflect on whether physically attending the meeting is in their best interest this year. Instead, we strongly recommend you watch the meeting in the safety of your homes and exercise your AGM voting rights online, ahead of the meeting, using the information provided below.

For those nonetheless planning to attend the meeting, please register to receive AGM information in the "Keep up to date with Shell", section of our website at www.shell.com/investor.

To further mitigate health risks for any attendees, employees and AGM support staff, this year the AGM will focus solely on the formal business set out in the Notice of Meeting. This will enable us to conduct it swiftly and vacate the venue promptly at the close of the meeting. Unfortunately, this also means there will be no presentation, food or refreshments.

Shareholders are advised that the following shareholder documents are now available on the Company's website to view or download:

Voting ID

Shareholder Reference Number

Shareholder Presentation, London

In prior years we have held a Shareholder Presentation in London, two days after the AGM. For the reasons outlined above, we have deemed it prudent to cancel this event this year.

We recognise that some of our shareholders valued this opportunity to engage with the Board, and like us, they may consider this news most unwelcome. However, we must consider safety first, and the changes we are making in these exceptional circumstances have been made to protect our people and those that may have attended this event.

We will continue to monitor the evolving situation and will endeavour to provide an alternative opportunity to engage with the Board in due course.

Please register to receive AGM information in the "Keep up to date with Shell", section of our website at www.shell.com/investor, where we will notify shareholders of future events in 2020.
