SAFE HARBOUR STATEMENT
This announcement may contain forward-looking statements, including ‘forward-looking statements’ within the meaning of the
United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as ‘will’, ‘aim’, ‘expects’, ‘anticipates’, ‘intends’,
‘looks’, ‘believes’, ‘vision’, or the negative of these terms and other similar expressions of future performance or results, and their
negatives, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon current
expectations and assumptions regarding anticipated developments and other factors affecting the Group. They are not historical
facts, nor are they guarantees of future performance.
Because these forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause actual

uncertainties, the material or principal factors which cause actual results to differ materially are: Unilever’s global brands not
meeting consumer preferences; increasing competitive pressures; Unilever’s investment choices in its portfolio management;
inability to find sustainable solutions to support long-term growth; customer relationships; the recruitment and retention of
talented employees; disruptions in our supply chain; the cost of raw materials and commodities; secure and reliable IT
infrastructure; successful execution of acquisitions, divestitures and business transformation projects; economic and political
risks and natural disasters; the debt crisis in Europe; financial risks; failure to meet high product safety and ethical standards;
and managing regulatory, tax and legal matters. Further details of potential risks and uncertainties affecting the Group are
described in the Group’s filings with the London Stock Exchange, Euronext Amsterdam and the US Securities and Exchange
Commission, including the Group’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended 31 December 2012 and the Annual Report
and Accounts 2012. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this announcement. Except as required by
any applicable law or regulation, the Group expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or
