N.V.
The following directors will retire at the conclusion of the AGM:
Bertrand Collomb
Oscar Fanjul
Hilmar Kopper
4. To give authority to the Directors allowing them greater flexibilty to
allocate assets between both parent companies and to amend the Deed of
Mutual Covenants.
5. In order to improve transparency and establish a one-to-one equivalence
in their economic interests in the Unilever Group, it is proposed that:
– the N.V. ordinary shares be split 3 to 1. As a consequence, the New York
registered shares will also be split 3 to 1.
– the PLC ordinary shares to be consolidated 9 to 20. As a result of the
consolidation, the PLC ADRs, which currently comprise four Unilever PLC
shares of 1.4 pence each, will be changed to comprise one Unilever PLC
share of 3 1/9 pence.
6. To remove the binding nomination procedure, whilst ensuring unity of
management, so as to allow shareholders the right to put forward
candidates for appointment as Directors at the meeting.
Further details on the above resolutions and the other resolutions to be
proposed at the AGMs will be included in the Notices of the Annual General
Meetings due to be published on 29 March 2006.
Unilever also announced today that it has decided to delist the Unilever
N.V. (depositary receipts for) ordinary shares from the stock exchanges in
Frankfurt and Zurich. The main reason for this decision is the low trading
volumes in the Unilever N.V. (depositary receipts for) ordinary shares at
both stock exchanges. Further announcements on the implementation of the
delisting procedures will follow in due course.
Unilever N.V. (depositary receipts for) ordinary shares will remain listed
on Euronext Amsterdam and on the New York Stock Exchange.
Unilever PLC ordinary shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange and on
the New York Stock Exchange.
