The following responsibility statement is extracted from page

best of their knowledge:

assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the

- the Directors' Report includes a fair review of the
development and performance of the business and the position of the
Group, together with a description of the principal risks and
uncertainties that it faces.

US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the US
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results
or outcomes of RELX PLC (together with its subsidiaries, "RELX",

cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from

RELX intellectual property rights and internet communications;
regulatory and other changes regarding the collection, transfer or
use of third-party content and data; demand for RELX products and
services; competitive factors in the industries in which RELX
operates; ability to realise the future anticipated benefits of
acquisitions; significant failure or interruption of our systems;
compromises of our data security systems or other unauthorised
access to our databases; legislative, fiscal, tax and regulatory
developments and political risks; exchange rate fluctuations; and
other risks referenced from time to time in the filings of the
Company with the SEC. You should not place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the
2019 Annual Report and the 2019 Form 20-F. Except as may be
required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or
release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to
reflect new information, events or circumstances after the date of
