(IFRS), dividends are only recorded against the year in which they become payable.
Actual dividends payable for 2006 on Unilever N.V. New York Registry Shares and American Depositary Receipts of Unilever PLC may
differ from those shown above, which include final dividend values calculated using the rates of exchange ruling on 7 February 2007
(€1.00 = $1.2987, £1 = $1.9718).
The term ‘shares’ as used in this document should, with respect to shares issued by Unilever N.V., be construed to include depositary
receipts for shares issued by Foundation Unilever NV Trust Office, unless the context otherwise requires or unless it is clear from the
context that this is not the case. For further information please refer to page 41.
