Explanation of Responses:
(1)	Each phantom stock unit was the economic equivalent of one share of United Natural Foods, Inc. (the "Company") common stock. On March 16, 2020, the reporting person's phantom stock units were settled for an equal number of shares of the Company's common stock in connection with the termination of the United Natural Foods, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan.
(2)	As a result of a computational error, the amount of securities reported as beneficially owned on the Form 4 filed by the reporting person on September 10, 2012 was overstated by 2,000 shares. The amount of securities reported as beneficially owned on this Form 4 has been adjusted accordingly.
(3)	Shares retained by the Company to satisfy certain tax withholding obligations in connection with the settlement of phantom stock units.
(4)	Includes 650 shares of common stock allocated to the reporting person under the United Natural Foods, Inc. 401(k) Plan's UNFI Stock Fund as of March 15, 2020.
(5)	Includes one share omitted from prior reports due to rounding error.
