<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">Our review highlighted that several line items on the guarantor statements contained only immaterial balances or additional lines compared to the group financial statements and so could be combined. These changes help users to identify the key messages instead of seeing several immaterial items.</font></p>

We have also considered the relative importance of the individual columns on the users and that the issuer and guarantor columns provide more useful information compared to the reconciling columns of the non-guarantor and eliminations columns. Following consultation with relevant stakeholders including our investor relations and communications teams, peers&#146; reporting and the nature of the guarantors&#146; commitment to security holders, we also determined that the key guarantor statement line items from a user&#146;s point of view are Net profit, Net current assets and Net assets of the guarantors and issuers.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">The &#128;20.5 billion credit amount in the non-guarantor column referred to in our previous letter, relating to the year ended 31 December&nbsp;2013, reflects the direct investment from the guarantors into subsidiary companies.&#160; In effect, the total &#128;59.6 billion (being &#128;41.7 billion plus &#128;17.8 billion) net assets of subsidiaries (equity accounted) held by the issuers and guarantors was split into the direct investment balance of &#128;20.5 billion, shown in the Non-guarantors column and the remaining net assets of subsidiaries (equity accounting) of &#128;39.1 billion, shown in the Eliminations column.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">&nbsp;</font></p>
<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As noted in our previous letter, there is no clear guidance for how to equity account for net assets of subsidiaries, particularly in group structures with multiple intermediate companies, and how they should be disclosed in the reconciliation columns of the Non-guarantor subsidiaries and Eliminations.&#160; However, following external advice and our review of best practice reporting by peers, we believe it is more appropriate to report the total elimination within the Eliminations column.&#160; This also improves the presentation of the Non-guarantors&#146; balances by avoiding disclosure of a negative balance within the Non-guarantors column for Net assets of subsidiaries (equity accounted), which could be misinterpreted as these companies having a net liabilities position when this is not the case.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">As noted in our previous letter, there is no clear guidance for how to equity account for earnings of subsidiaries, particularly in group structures with multiple intermediate companies, and how they should be disclosed.&#160; However, following external advice and our review of best practice reporting by peers, we believe it is more appropriate to report the total equity earnings within one row.&#160; This is also more consistent with equity accounting for investments in associates and joint ventures in accordance with IAS 28 (i.e. where a company has significant influence or joint control but does not have control).</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">These revisions were assessed collectively with the other changes previously discussed. Although these revisions include significant amounts, all the revisions made do not have a material impact on the financial statements because they do not impact the key information used by users of the financial statements. The total position of key guarantor statement line items of the guarantors and issuers, being the sum of Unilever Capital Corporation, Unilever parent entities and Unilever United States Inc., has not significantly changed due to the revisions.&#160; Similarly the total position of the non-guarantor subsidiaries and the eliminations columns has not significantly changed.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0in 0in .0001pt;"><font size="2" face="Times New Roman" style="font-size:10.0pt;">We do not think that there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable person would consider them individually or collectively material in the context of our registered securities. The changes are not considered material with reference to the nine considerations stated in SAB Topic 1:M or any other circumstances and factors that we can envisage.&#160; We do not believe it is probable that the judgment of a reasonable person would have been changed or influenced by the revisions and we are not aware of any market volatility in relation to the numbers that have been revised. We have considered the iron curtain and rollover approaches in SAB Topic 1:N but there is no difference between the two in these instances.</font></p>
