supplies (CCS) basis, were $3.3 billion compared to $7.8 billion a year
ago. Basic CCS earnings per share decreased by 57% versus the same quarter
a year ago.

* Cash flow from operating activities for the first quarter 2009 was $7.6
billion. Net capital investment for the quarter was $6.9 billion. Total
cash returned to shareholders in the form of dividends was $2.4 billion.

* A first quarter 2009 dividend has been announced of $0.42 per share, an
increase of 5% over the US dollar dividend for the same period in 2008.

Royal Dutch Shell Chief Executive Jeroen van der Veer commented:"First quarter
2009 performance was affected by the weaker global economy, with a challenging
Upstream and Downstream business environment. As we announced previously, our
dividend for first quarter 2009 will be $0.42 per share, an increase of 5%. We
continue to make significant investments in the company for future
profitability. Industry conditions remain challenging, and our focus is on
capital discipline and costs. We are taking a prudent approach to this
downturn, focused on sustaining a strong position in the energy landscape.
Shell people, operational excellence, good investments and technology are our
cornerstones for the future."

SUMMARY OF IDENTIFIED ITEMS

Earnings in the first quarter 2009 reflected the following items, which in
aggregate amounted to a net gain of $337 million (compared to a net charge of
$77 million in the first quarter 2008), as summarised in the table below:

* Exploration & Production earnings included a net gain of $345 million,
reflecting gains from divestments of $65 million, tax credits of $235
million and a gain of $96 million related to the mark-to-market valuation
of certain UK gas contracts, which were partly offset by a charge related
to a pension adjustment for inflation in the USA of $51 million. Earnings
for the first quarter 2008 included a net charge of $66 million.

* Gas & Power earnings included a charge of $15 million related to a pension
adjustment for inflation in the USA of $14 million and a charge of $1
million related to the mark-to-market valuation of certain gas contracts.
Earnings for the first quarter 2008 included a charge of $11 million.

* Oil Products earnings included a charge of $136 million, reflecting a
pension adjustment for inflation in the USA of $80 million and tax charges
of $56 million.

* Chemicals earnings included a charge of $19 million related to a pension
adjustment for inflation in the USA.

* Corporate earnings included a gain of $162 million related to tax credits.

insight into its segment earnings, CCS earnings and income attributable to
shareholders. Further additional comments on the business segments are provided
in the section 'Earnings by business segment' on page 4 and onwards.

Retirement benefit accounting effects

Retirement plans are provided for employees of all major subsidiaries. The
nature of such plans varies according to the legal and fiscal requirements and
economic conditions of the country in which the employees are engaged.

As detailed in Shell's 2008 Annual Report and Form 20-F, the sharp downturn in
financial markets in 2008 resulted in a reduction in plan asset values held for
retirement benefits. This in turn reduces the expected return on plan assets in
the following year, according to IFRS accounting rules. This will result in
approximately $1.1 billion (post-tax) of non-cash charges in the 2009 full-year
Statement of Income, which will be allocated to the business segments and
divided equally in each quarter. This compares to $0.6 billion (post-tax) of
non-cash gains in the full year 2008 Statement of Income.

2 Excludes oil sands bitumen production

First quarter Exploration & Production segment earnings were $1,697 million
compared to $5,143 million a year ago. Earnings included a net gain of $345
million related to identified items, compared to a net charge of $66 million in
the first quarter 2008 (see page 3 for details).

Earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 reflected the impact of lower oil
and gas prices on revenues, lower oil production volumes, higher exploration
expenses, mainly related to on going amortisation of leasehold license costs,
and non-cash pension charges, which were partly offset by lower royalty
expenses.

Global liquids realisations were 54% lower than in the first quarter 2008.
Global gas realisations were 15% lower than a year ago. Outside the USA, gas
realisations decreased by 2% whereas in the USA gas realisations decreased by
50%.

First quarter 2009 production (excluding oil sands bitumen production) was
3,321 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) compared to 3,438
thousand boe/d a year ago. Crude oil production was down 7% and natural gas
production was in line with the first quarter 2008.

Underlying production, compared to the first quarter 2008, increased by some
200 thousand boe/d from new fields start-ups and the continuing ramp-up of
fields started up in recent years, more than offsetting field declines.

First quarter portfolio developments

In Russia, the Sakhalin II project (Shell share 27.5%) delivered first gas
production from the Lunskoye A platform and also commenced LNG exports. The
Sakhalin II project is expected to deliver 395 thousand boe/d of peak
production (100% basis) after full ramp-up.

In the USA, the final investment decision (FID) was taken on the Caesar Tonga
project (Shell share 22.4%), with estimated peak production of 40 thousand boe/
d (100% basis).

Also in the USA, Shell was the apparent highest bidder on 39 of 54 blocks in
Lease Sale 208 in the Gulf of Mexico.

In Guyana, Shell acquired a 25% interest in the Stabroek exploration licence
covering an area of some 47 thousand km2.

In Abu Dhabi, Shell signed an agreement with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company
(ADNOC) to extend the GASCO Joint Venture for a further twenty years. GASCO's
operations are mainly focused on gas processing and natural gas liquid (NGL)
extraction.

1 Q1 on Q1 change

First quarter Gas & Power segment earnings were $514 million compared to $948
million a year ago. Earnings included a charge of $15 million related to
identified items, compared to a charge of $11 million in the first quarter 2008
(see page 3 for details).

Earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 mainly reflected lower LNG
earnings, reduced gas-to-liquids product prices, lower natural gas and power
trading contributions and non-cash pension charges.

LNG earnings were lower than in the same quarter last year reflecting lower LNG
sales volumes and the impact of lower oil prices on LNG revenues. In addition,
lower dividends were received from an LNG joint venture due to payment timing
differences. These were partly offset by higher income from LNG cargo diversion
opportunities and the benefit of recent sales contract renegotiations.

LNG sales volumes of 3.06 million tonnes were 13% lower than in the same
quarter a year ago. Compared to the first quarter 2008, volumes increased
following the start-up of Train 5 at the North West Shelf project and the
start-up of the Sakhalin II LNG production. This growth was more than offset by
lower volumes from Nigeria LNG due to natural gas supply disruptions. Excluding
the impacts from the security situation in Nigeria, LNG sales volumes were
broadly similar compared to the same quarter last year.

Natural gas and power marketing and trading earnings were lower than in the
same quarter a year ago, reflecting increased contributions from Europe, which
were more than offset by reduced earnings in North America.

First quarter portfolio developments

In Russia, following the start-up of LNG production, the first LNG cargo was
lifted from the Sakhalin II project (Shell share 27.5%), which will have an LNG
capacity of 9.6 million tonnes per annum (100% basis) after full ramp-up.

1 Q1 on Q1 change

First quarter Oil Sands segment results were a loss of $42 million compared to
earnings of $249 million in the same quarter last year.

Earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 reflected the impact of lower oil
prices on revenues, higher operating costs, higher royalty expenses and
non-cash pension charges, which were partly offset by higher underlying
production volumes.

Bitumen production compared to the same quarter last year decreased by 11%.
Bitumen production, excluding the one-off effect of the royalty revision in the
first quarter 2008, resulted in an increase of the underlying production of 4%.
Upgrader availability was 96% compared to 94% in the same quarter last year.

First quarter Oil Products CCS segment earnings were $1,092 million compared to
$1,194 million in the first quarter 2008. Earnings included a charge of $136
million related to identified items (see page 3 for details).

CCS earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 reflected increased marketing
earnings, lower refining earnings and non-cash pension charges.

Marketing earnings compared to the same period a year ago reflected lower oil
products marketing sales volumes, as a consequence of a worldwide decline in
demand, and lower retail and lubricants earnings, which were more than offset
by higher trading and B2B contributions.

Oil products (marketing and trading) sales volumes decreased by 12% compared to
the same quarter last year mainly as a result of reduced global demand.
Marketing sales volumes were 6% lower than in the first quarter 2008. Excluding
the impact of divestments, marketing sales volumes decreased by 3%.

Refining earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 reflected lower realised
refining margins and lower refinery intake volumes, which were partly offset by
lower operating costs.

Industry refining margins compared to the same quarter a year ago were higher
in the Asia-Pacific region and the US West Coast and lower in Europe and the US
Gulf Coast.

Refining intake volumes decreased by 15% compared to the same quarter last
year. Excluding the impact of divestments, intake volumes decreased by 7%
mainly as a result of weaker market conditions. Refinery availability was in
line with the first quarter of 2008 at 92%.

to earnings of $201 million in the same quarter last year. Earnings included a
charge of $19 million related to an identified item (see page 3 for details).

CCS earnings compared to the first quarter 2008 reflected lower sales volumes,
lower realised margins, lower income from equity-accounted investments and
higher operating costs primarily due to non-cash pension charges.

Sales volumes decreased by 21% compared to the first quarter 2008, mainly as a
result of reduced global demand.

Chemicals manufacturing plant availability was 92%, 3% lower than in the first
quarter 2008. The reduced global demand for chemicals products has
significantly impacted the chemicals manufacturing plant utilisation rate,
which dropped to 64% from 86% in the first quarter 2008.

NOTES

1. Accounting policies and basis of presentation

The quarterly financial report and tables are prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are also in accordance
with IFRS as adopted by the European Union.

The accounting policies are unchanged from those set out in Note 2 to the
Consolidated Financial Statements of Royal Dutch Shell plc in the Annual Report
and Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2008 on pages 118 to 122.

2. Earnings on an estimated current cost of supplies (CCS) basis

To facilitate a better understanding of underlying business performance, the
financial results are also analysed on an estimated current cost of supplies
(CCS) basis as applied for the Oil Products and Chemicals segment earnings.
Earnings on an estimated current cost of supplies basis provides useful
information concerning the effect of changes in the cost of supplies on Royal
Dutch Shell's results of operations and is a measure to manage the performance
of the Oil Products and Chemicals segments but is not a measure of financial
performance under IFRS.

On this basis, Oil Products and Chemicals segment cost of sales of the volumes
sold during the period is based on the cost of supplies during the same period
after making allowance for the estimated tax effect, instead of the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method of inventory accounting. Earnings calculated on this
basis do not represent an application of the last-in, first-out (LIFO)
inventory basis and do not reflect any inventory drawdown effects.

3. Return on average capital employed (ROACE)

ROACE is defined as the sum of the current and previous three quarters' income
adjusted for interest expense, after tax, divided by the average capital
employed for the period.

Components of the calculation are:

$ million Q1 2009 Q1 2008

Income (four quarters) 20,791 33,686

Interest expense after tax 543 726

ROACE numerator 21,334 34,412

Capital employed - opening 150,225 130,881

Capital employed - closing 152,975 150,225

Capital employed - average 151,600 140,553

ROACE 14.1% 24.5%

4. Earnings by business segment

Operating segment results are presented before deduction of minority interest
and also exclude interest and other income of a non-operational nature,
interest expense, non-trading currency exchange effects and tax on these items,
which are included in the Corporate results. Operating segment results are
after tax and include equity-accounted investments.

5. Equity

Total equity comprises equity attributable to shareholders of Royal Dutch Shell
and to the minority interest. Other reserves comprise the capital redemption
reserve, share premium reserve, merger reserve, share plan reserve, currency
translation differences, unrealised gains/(losses) on securities and unrealised
gains/(losses) on cash flow hedges.

6. Basis for Royal Dutch Shell earnings per ordinary share

The total number of Royal Dutch Shell ordinary shares in issue at the end of
the period was 6,241.5 million. Royal Dutch Shell reports earnings per share on
a basic and on a diluted basis, based on the weighted average number of Royal
Dutch Shell (combined A and B) ordinary shares outstanding. Shares held in
respect of share options and other incentive compensation plans are excluded in
determining basic earnings per share.

Basic earnings per share calculations are based on the following weighted
average number of shares:

Millions Q1 2009 Q4 2008 Q1 2008

Royal Dutch Shell ordinary shares of euro
0.07 each 6,121.6 6,123.8 6,195.5

Diluted earnings per share calculations are based on the following weighted
average number of shares. This adjusts the basic number of shares for all share
options currently "in-the-money".

Millions Q1 2009 Q4 2008 Q1 2008

Royal Dutch Shell ordinary shares of euro
