supplement, the attached prospectus and the additional documents incorporated by reference herein for more information on Royal Dutch
Shell plc ("Royal Dutch Shell"), Shell International Finance B.V., with corporate seat in The Hague ("Shell Finance"), and recent
transactions involving Royal Dutch Shell and Shell Finance. In this prospectus supplement, the terms "we", "our" and "us" refer to Shell
Finance and Royal Dutch Shell. Shell Finance is the issuer and Royal Dutch Shell is the guarantor in this offering. The "Shell Group" or
"Shell" refers to Royal Dutch Shell and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Shell Finance.
Shell Activities
Royal Dutch Shell is one of the world's largest independent oil and gas companies in terms of market capitalisation, operating cash flow
and production. Shell explores for crude oil and natural gas worldwide, both in conventional fields and from sources such as tight rock, shale
and coal formations.
Shell works to develop new crude oil and natural gas supplies from major fields. For example, in 2015, production began from the
Bonga Phase 3 and Erha North Phase 2 projects in Nigeria, and the Corrib gas field in Ireland. Shell also extracts bitumen from oil sands,
which Shell converts into synthetic crude oil. Shell cools natural gas to provide liquefied natural gas ("LNG") that can be safely shipped to
markets around the world, and Shell converts gas to liquids ("GTL").
Shell's portfolio of refineries and chemical plants enables Shell to capture value from the oil and gas that Shell produces, turning them
into a range of refined and petrochemical products, which are moved and marketed around the world for domestic, industrial and transport use.
The products Shell sells include gasoline, diesel, heating oil, aviation fuel, marine fuel, LNG for transport, lubricants, bitumen and sulphur.
Shell also produces and sells ethanol from sugar cane in Brazil, through our Raízen joint venture. The distinctive Shell pecten, (a trademark in
use since the early part of the 20th century), and trademarks in which the word Shell appears, help raise the profile of our brand globally. A
strong patent portfolio underlies the technology that we employ in our various businesses. In total, Shell has about 12,000 granted patents and
pending patent applications.
Shell Businesses
Our businesses and organisations described below were in place with effect from January 1, 2016.
Integrated Gas is engaged in the liquefaction and transportation of gas, and the conversion of natural gas to liquids to provide fuels and
other products, as well as projects with an integrated activity from producing to commercialising gas.
Upstream combines the operating segments Upstream, which is engaged in the exploration for and extraction of crude oil, natural gas
and natural gas liquids, the transportation of oil and wind energy, and Oil Sands, which is engaged in the extraction of bitumen from oil sands
that is converted into synthetic crude oil.
Downstream is made up of a number of different Oil Products and Chemicals business activities, part of an integrated value chain, that
collectively turn crude oil into a range of refined products which are moved and marketed around the world for domestic, industrial and
transport use. The products we sell include gasoline, diesel, heating oil, aviation fuel, marine fuel, LNG for transport, lubricants, bitumen and
sulphur. In addition, we produce and sell petrochemicals for industrial use worldwide.
Shell's Oil Products activities comprise Refining, Trading and Supply, Pipelines and Marketing, referred to as classes of business.
Marketing includes Retail, Lubricants, Business to Business and Alternative Energies. In

S-3
Table of Contents
Trading and Supply, Shell trades crude oil, oil products and petrochemicals, to optimise feedstocks for Refining and Chemicals, to supply our
Marketing businesses and third parties, and for Shell's own profit. Chemicals has major manufacturing plants, located close to refineries, and
its own marketing network.
Projects & Technology manages the delivery of Shell's major projects and drives research and innovation to develop new technology
solutions. It provides technical services and technology capability covering both Upstream and Downstream activities. It is also responsible for
providing functional leadership across Shell in the areas of safety and environment, contracting and procurement,wells activities and CO2
management.

The Offering
Please refer to "Description of Notes" on page S-9 of this prospectus supplement and "Description of Debt Securities" on page 15 of

of Shell Finance and Royal Dutch Shell, respectively, and will rank equally with all
other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding of Shell
Finance and Royal Dutch Shell, respectively. Because Royal Dutch Shell is a holding
company, the guarantee will effectively rank junior to any indebtedness of its
subsidiaries.

In the event of tax law changes that require us to pay additional amounts as described
under "Description of Debt Securities--Provisions Applicable to Each Indenture--
Optional Tax Redemption" in the attached prospectus, we may call the notes for
redemption, in whole but not in part, prior to maturity.

Substitution:
We may cause Royal Dutch Shell or any subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell to assume the
obligations of Shell Finance under the notes. Additionally, should any entity become the
100% owner of Royal Dutch Shell, such entity may assume the obligations of Royal
Dutch Shell. U.S. tax implications of these provisions to holders are described under
"Taxation--U.S. Taxation--U.S. Taxation of Debt Securities--Merger and
Consolidation/Substitution of Issuer" of the attached prospectus.

Book-entry issuance, denominations, settlement
We will issue the notes in fully registered form in minimum denominations of $1,000
and clearance:
and integral multiples of $1,000. Each series of notes will be represented by one or more
global securities registered in the name of a nominee of The Depository Trust Company
("DTC"). You will hold beneficial interests in the notes through DTC and its direct and
indirect participants, including Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, and DTC and
its direct and indirect participants will record your beneficial interest on their books. We
will not issue certificated notes except in limited circumstances that we explain under
"Legal Ownership--Global Securities--Special Situations When the Global Security

system, see "Clearance and Settlement--The Clearing Systems--DTC" in the attached
prospectus.
Separate series; further

identical, except as set forth in this prospectus supplement. The 2019 notes, the 2021
notes, the 2026 notes and the 2046 notes will each constitute a separate series of notes
under the indenture relating to the notes. Each such series will be separate from

S-6
Table of Contents
any other series of debt securities that may be issued from time to time in the future

under the indenture.

The issuance of each of the 2019 notes, the 2021 notes, the 2026 notes and the 2046
notes is not conditioned on the issuance of any other series of notes.

The indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that may
be issued thereunder and we may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, issue
additional debt securities, including additional notes, having the same ranking and same
interest rate, maturity date, redemption terms and other terms as the notes described in
this prospectus supplement (except for the price to public, issue date, and in some cases,
the first interest payment date). If we reopen any series of notes and issue additional
notes, such additional notes will constitute part of a single series of debt securities

This section describes the specific financial and legal terms of the notes and supplements the more general description under "Description of
Debt Securities" in the attached prospectus. To the extent that the following description is inconsistent with the terms described under
"Description of Debt Securities" in the attached prospectus, the following description replaces that in the attached prospectus.
General
The 2019 notes will be issued in an initial aggregate principal amount of $1,750,000,000 and will mature on May 10, 2019, the 2021 notes
will be issued in an initial aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000,000 and will mature on May 10, 2021, the 2026 notes will be issued in an
initial aggregate principal amount of $1,750,000,000 and will mature on May 10, 2026, and the 2046 notes will be issued in an initial aggregate
principal amount of $2,250,000,000 and will mature on May 10, 2046. Book-entry interests in the notes will be issued in minimum denominations
of $1,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000.
The notes will bear interest at the rates per annum shown on the cover page of this prospectus supplement, payable in arrears on May 10 and
November 10 of each year to holders of record on the preceding April 25 and October 25, as the case may be, commencing on November 10, 2016
(or the first following Business Day, if such day is not otherwise a Business Day, where "Business Day" means any week day on which banking or
trust institutions in neither New York nor London are authorized generally or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close, as if made on
the date payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amount payable for the period from and after the interest payment date). Interest on the
notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Application will be made for listing of the notes on the New York Stock Exchange. No assurance can be made that such application will be
approved or that a liquid trading market for the notes will develop. The notes and guarantees are governed by New York law.
The notes will be the unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of Shell Finance and will rank equally with all of its other unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time outstanding.
Royal Dutch Shell will fully and unconditionally guarantee on an unsubordinated basis the due and punctual payment of the principal of,
premium (if any), and interest on the notes, including any additional amounts, when and as any such payments become due and payable, whether at
maturity, upon redemption or declaration of acceleration, or otherwise. The guarantee of the notes will be unsecured and unsubordinated
indebtedness of Royal Dutch Shell and will rank equally with all of its other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to time
outstanding. Because Royal Dutch Shell is a holding company, the guarantee will effectively rank junior to any indebtedness of its subsidiaries.
The 2019 notes, the 2021 notes, the 2026 notes and the 2046 notes will each constitute a separate series of notes under the indenture relating
to the notes. Each such series will be separate from any other series of debt securities that may be issued from time to time in the future under the
indenture relating to guaranteed debt securities issued by Shell Finance, dated as of June 27, 2006, among Shell Finance, Royal Dutch Shell and
the trustee, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas. The indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debt securities that may be
issued thereunder and we may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, issue additional debt securities, including additional notes, having
the same ranking and same interest rate, maturity date, redemption terms and other terms as the notes described in this prospectus supplement
(except for the price to public, issue date, and in some cases, the first interest payment date). If we reopen any series of notes and issue additional
notes, such additional notes will constitute part of a single series of debt securities consisting of such additional notes along with the related series
of notes offered hereby.

The trustee at its principal corporate trust office in the city of New York is designated as the principal paying agent. We may at any time
designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of paying agents or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent
acts.
We will issue the notes in fully registered form. Each series of notes will be represented by one or more global securities registered in the
name of a nominee of DTC. You will hold a beneficial interest in the notes through DTC and its participants, including Clearstream, Luxemburg
and Euroclear. See "Clearance and Settlement" in the attached prospectus for more information about these clearing systems.
Payment of Additional Amounts
The government of any jurisdiction where Royal Dutch Shell or Shell Finance is resident may require Royal Dutch Shell or Shell Finance to
withhold amounts from payments on the principal or interest on the notes or any amounts to be paid under the guarantee, as the case may be, for
taxes or any other governmental charges. If a withholding of this type is required, Royal Dutch Shell or Shell Finance, as the case may be, may be
required to pay you an additional amount so that the net amount you receive will be the amount specified in the note to which you are entitled. For
more information on additional amounts and the situations in which Royal Dutch Shell or Shell Finance must pay additional amounts, see
"Description of Debt Securities--Provisions Applicable to Each Indenture--Payment of Additional Amounts" in the attached prospectus; for these

Tax Redemption

jurisdiction of the federal or state court in the U.S. has been based on grounds that are internationally acceptable, that proper legal procedures have
been observed, that it would not contravene Dutch public policy to give binding effect to such final judgment and that the judgment is not
irreconcilable with a judgment of a court in the Netherlands or an earlier judgment of a foreign court that is capable of being recognised in the
Netherlands."
