The Trustee further undertakes that it will carry out the Trust and administer the Trust Property subject to the terms and conditions herein set out and subject to the provisions of any applicable law.

2.4 The Trust constituted in accordance with clauses 2.1 and 2.2 shall be known as the Royal Dutch Shell Group Dividend Access Trust.

2.5 STT and BG shall, forthwith upon being requested to do so by Royal Dutch Shell, take all steps necessary to redeem the Dividend Access Shares in accordance with the rights attaching to each of them.

3. OBJECT AND PURPOSE

3.1 The primary object and purpose of the Trust is for the Trustee to receive, as trustee for the Class B Shareholders and in accordance with their respective holdings of Class B Shares, any amounts paid by way of dividend on Dividend Access Shares and to pay any such amounts to the Class B Shareholders on the same pro rata basis.

3.2 Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Trust Deed, no Class B Shareholder shall acquire any right to or in respect of any benefits from the Trust, whether actual or conditional, other than the rights and benefits in respect of amounts paid by way of dividend on Dividend Access Shares expressly conferred on such Class B Shareholders by this Trust Deed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

11

(A) no Class B Shareholder shall acquire any right to enforce the payment of a dividend declared by STT on the STT Dividend Access Share or declared by BG on the BG Dividend Access Share, such right being reserved solely for the Trustee as holder of the legal title to the Dividend Access Shares, or any other rights against STT or BG; and

(B) no Class B Shareholder shall acquire any right to, or interest (whether legal or beneficial) in, Dividend Access Shares or any Income.

3.3 Unless STT and BG determine otherwise, if any amounts paid by way of dividend on a Dividend Access Share have not been claimed by a Class B Shareholder for 12 years after the date of payment of the relevant dividend, such amounts (each a “Forfeited Dividend”) will be forfeited and the beneficial interest in such amounts shall pass to STT and/or BG (as applicable) in accordance with clause 2.2(C).

3.4 If Royal Dutch Shell pays any amount to a Class B Shareholder by way of dividend on the Class B Shares held by that Class B Shareholder, the beneficial interest in any amount:

(A) held on trust for that Class B Shareholder pursuant to clause 2.2(A) of this Trust Deed; and

(B) which corresponds to the amount paid by Royal Dutch Shell to that Class B Shareholder by way of dividend on the Class B Shares held by that Class B Shareholder (which amount shall for this purpose be deemed to include the amount of any tax required to be withheld or deducted by Royal Dutch Shell in relation to the payment of that amount),

(an “RDS Dividend Equivalent Amount”) will be forfeited by that Class B Shareholder and will pass to STT and/or BG (as applicable) in accordance with clause 2.2(D) above.

3.5 For the purposes of clause 3.4, where the dividend payment made by Royal Dutch Shell is made in one currency and the corresponding amount held on trust for that Class B Shareholder is held in another currency, the RDS Dividend Equivalent Amount will be calculated by converting the amount paid by Royal Dutch Shell into that other currency at such rate as Royal Dutch Shell shall consider appropriate.

3.6 Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Trust Deed, no Class B Shareholder shall acquire any right to or in respect of any benefits under the Trust in respect of a particular dividend paid on a Dividend Access Share, whether actual or conditional, to the extent that such Class B Shareholder has elected, pursuant to any scrip dividend issue by Royal Dutch Shell in accordance with its articles of association, to receive further shares of Royal Dutch Shell, credited as fully paid, instead of such benefits.

4. APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEE

4.1 The boards of directors of STT, BG and of Royal Dutch Shell, acting jointly, shall be entitled to appoint the Trustee from time to time and shall equally be entitled to terminate the appointment of any Trustee.

12

5. VACATION OF OFFICE BY TRUSTEE

14.3 Should the High Court at any time approve a modification of the STT Scheme or the BG Scheme which necessitates the amendment of this Trust Deed so as to render it consistent with the provisions of that scheme as amended, the Trustee shall, notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, do all such things and take all such steps as may be necessary to amend the Trust Deed accordingly.
