Director Shareholding

GlaxoSmithKline PLC
8 May 2002



                              Directors' Interests



I give below details of changes in directors' interests in the Ordinary Shares
of GlaxoSmithKline plc.

7 May 2002       Abacus (GW) Trustees Limited, as trustee of The Glaxo Wellcome Employee Trust
                 ("the Trust"), transferred 4,518 Ordinary Shares in the Company to participants of
                 the Glaxo Wellcome 1999 Long Term Incentive Plan.


The Company was advised of this transaction on 8 May 2002.

The Trust is a discretionary trust of which all employees or former employees of
GlaxoSmithKline Services Unlimited (formerly Glaxo Wellcome plc) and its
subsidiaries are potential beneficiaries. Two of the Company's directors, Sir
Richard Sykes and John Coombe are therefore interested in the shares held in the
Trust from time to time in the same way as other employees or former employees
of GlaxoSmithKline Services Unlimited and its subsidiaries.
