Exchange controls affecting security holders
The Netherlands Act on Financial Supervision (Wet op het financieel toezicht (Wft)) came into effect on 1 January 2007. The Wft brings
together practically all the rules and conditions that applied to the financial markets and their supervision. Under this Act the Minister
of Finance is authorised to issue regulations relating to financial transactions concerning the movement of capital to or from third
countries with respect to direct investments, establishment, the performing of financial services, the admission of negotiable
instruments or goods with respect to which regulations have been issued under the Import and Export Act in the interest of the
international legal system or an arrangement relevant thereto. These regulations may contain a prohibition to perform any of the
actions indicated in those regulations without a licence. To date no regulations of this type have been issued which are applicable to
Unilever N.V.
There are currently no exchange controls affecting PLC shareholders.
