Reckitt Benckiser Group plc

Share Repurchase Programme

Reckitt Benckiser Group plc ("RB") today announces that it will commence a share repurchase programme of RB's ordinary shares of 10 pence each (the "Ordinary Shares") up to a maximum of 2,000,000 Ordinary Shares representing approximately 0.28% of RB's current issued share capital (the "Programme") to offset the dilutive impact of employee share schemes.

RB announces that it has entered into an irrevocable, non-discretionary arrangement with Morgan Stanley Securities Limited ("Morgan Stanley") to enable the purchase of Ordinary Shares during the period running from 2 January 2015 and ending no later than 27 February 2015, therefore running through RB's close period of 13 December 2014 - 11 February 2015.

Any purchase of Ordinary Shares done in relation to this announcement will be carried out on the London Stock Exchange and executed in accordance with the Listing Rules and RB's general authority to make market purchases of Shares. RB will announce any market repurchase of Ordinary Shares no later than 7.30 a.m. on the business day following the calendar day on which the repurchase occurred. Ordinary Shares purchased under the Programme will be held in treasury.

Morgan Stanley may undertake transactions in Shares (which may include sales and hedging activities, in addition to purchases) in order to manage its market exposure under the Programme.  Morgan Stanley will make any disclosures it is legally required to make in relation to such transactions.
