CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
This Report on Form 6-K contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act 1995) based on our best current information and what we believe to be reasonable assumptions about anticipated developments. Words such as ‘expects’, ‘anticipates’, ‘intends’ and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Because of the risks and uncertainties that always exist in any operating environment or business we cannot give any assurance that the expectations reflected in these statements will prove correct. Actual results and developments may differ materially depending upon, among other factors, currency values, competitive pricing, consumption levels, costs, environmental risks, physical risks, risks related to the integration of acquisitions, legislative, fiscal and regulatory developments and political and social conditions in the economies and environments where Unilever operates. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Further details of these potential risks and uncertainties are given in the Unilever Annual Report & Accounts and Form 20-F 2001.
