annexed to the next Annual Return of Unilever PLC.
Unless otherwise indicated, the companies are incorporated and
principally operate in the countries under which they are shown.
The aggregate percentage of equity capital directly or indirectly held
by NV or PLC is shown in the margin, except where it is 100%. All
these percentages are rounded down to the nearest whole number.
