Dear Sir or Madam

ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING ("AGM")

Reference is made to the notice of meeting that Bunzl plc (the "Company") sent to you dated 9 March 2020 (the "AGM Notice"). Given the developing situation with Coronavirus (COVID-19), the Company has taken the decision to change the proposed venue for the meeting to its registered office to give it greater control over the arrangements for it. The time of the meeting is also changing. As a result, the meeting will now be held at 11.30am on Wednesday, 15 April 2020 at York House, 45 Seymour Street, London, W1H7JT. The business to be conducted at the meeting remains unchanged and there will be no effect on voting instructions already received. However, in order to mitigate potential health risks, the Company will be implementing social distancing measures at the meeting. In addition, the meeting will only deal with the formal business and no pre or post-meeting refreshments will be provided. As such, the Company strongly recommends that shareholders should submit their proxy forms remotely. Please refer to the notes to the AGM Notice for instructions on how to vote by proxy.

Yours faithfully

Philip Rogerson

Chairman
