RE:                                      PARAGRAPH 3.1.4 OF THE DISCLOSURE AND TRANSPARENCY RULES

The notifications listed below were all received under Paragraph 3.1.2 of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Diageo plc (the "Company") announces that:

1. It received notification on 10 June 2015 of the following allocations of ordinary shares of 28 101/108 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") under the Diageo Share Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), namely:

(i) the following director of the Company was allocated Ordinary Shares on 10 June 2015  under the Plan, by Diageo Share Ownership Trustees Limited (the "Trustee"):

Name of Director           Number of Ordinary Shares
 
D Mahlan                        9

(ii) the following Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMR") were allocated Ordinary Shares on 20 June 2015 under the Plan, by the Trustee:

Name of PDMR              Number of Ordinary Shares
 
N Blazquez                      9
 
D Cutter                          10

S Moriarty                      9

L Wood                          11

The number of Ordinary Shares allocated comprises those purchased on behalf of the employee using an amount which the employee has chosen to have deducted from salary ("Sharepurchase") and those awarded to the employee by the Company ("Sharematch") on the basis of one Sharematch Ordinary Share for every two Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares.

The Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares were purchased and the Sharematch Ordinary Shares were awarded at a price per share of £18.75.

The Ordinary Shares are held by the Trustee and in the name of the Trustee. Sharepurchase Ordinary Shares can normally be sold at any time. Sharematch Ordinary Shares cannot normally be disposed of for a period of three years
after the award date.

2. It received notification on 10 June 2015 that Dr FB Humer, a director of the Company, had purchased 441 Ordinary Shares on 10 June 2015 under an arrangement with the Company, whereby he has agreed to use an amount of £8,000 each month, net of tax, from his director's fees to purchase Ordinary Shares. Dr Humer has agreed to retain the Ordinary Shares while he remains a director of the Company.
 
The Ordinary Shares were purchased at a price per share of £18.75.

The Ordinary Shares referred to in items 1 and 2 above were purchased on the London Stock Exchange.

As a result of the above transactions, interests of directors and PDMRs in the Company's Ordinary Shares and American Depository Shares ("ADS")* (excluding options, awards under the Company's LTIPs and interests as potential
beneficiaries of the Company's Employee Benefit Trusts) are as follows:

Name of Director             Number of Ordinary Shares
 
Dr FB Humer                    60,097
 
D Mahlan                         280,571 (of which 137,626 are held as ADS)*
 
Name of PDMR               Number of Ordinary Shares

N Blazquez                       79,422

D Cutter                           11,911**
 
S Moriarty                       42,358
 
L Wood                           5,992
 
 
J Fahey

Senior Company Secretarial Assistant

10 June 2015

* 1 ADS is the equivalent of 4 Ordinary Shares.

** The change from previously announced figure is due to a reclassification of 1,077 Ordinary Shares, that no longer form part of the number of Ordinary Shares held by Mr Cutter.
