references incorporated in the incorporated material, unless specifically noted otherwise.

The following pages and sections of the Groups Annual
Report and Accounts 2011, regardless of their inclusion in any cross-reference below, are hereby specifically excluded and are not incorporated by reference into this report on Form 20-F:

This 20-F Report and the
Groups Annual Report and Accounts 2011 (furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K) contain certain measures that are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such as IFRS. We believe this information, along
with comparable GAAP measurements, is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring our operating performance, ability to retire debt and invest in new business opportunities. Our management uses these financial measures, along with
the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our operating performance and value creation. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in
compliance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures as reported by us may not be comparable with similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. In addition, there are limitations on the usefulness of our reported non-GAAP financial measures.

We report on the following non-GAAP measures:



| |  | underlying sales growth;
|- |  | ------------------------

| |  | underlying volume growth;
|- |  | -------------------------

| |  | underlying operating margin (including explanation of restructuring, business disposals, impairments and other one-off items (RDIs));
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | free cash flow; and
|- |  | -------------------

| |  | net debt.
|- |  | ---------

The information set forth under the
heading Non-GAAP measures on pages 26 to 27 of the Groups Annual Report and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference. Within these pages further information about the above
measures can be found.

|(c) | Net profit margin is expressed as net profit attributable to shareholders equity as a percentage of turnover from continuing operations.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|(d) | In the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of net profit from continuing operations excluding net profit or loss of joint ventures and
associates increased by fixed charges, income taxes and dividends received from joint ventures and associates. Fixed charges consist of interest payable on debt and a portion of lease costs determined to be representative of interest. This ratio
takes no account of interest receivable although Unilevers treasury operations involve both borrowing and depositing funds.

Dividend record

The following tables show the dividends declared and dividends paid by NV and
PLC for the last five years, expressed in terms of the revised share denominations which became effective from 22 May 2006. Differences between the amounts ultimately received by US holders of NV and PLC shares are the result of changes in
exchange rates between the equalisation of the dividends and the date of payment.

Following agreement at the 2009 AGMs and separate meetings of
ordinary shareholders, the Equalisation Agreement was modified to facilitate the payment of quarterly dividends from 2010 onwards.

euro. In particular: 
      our European supply chain would face economic and operational
challenges;       our customers and suppliers may be adversely affected,
leading to heightened counterparty credit risk; and       our investment in
the country concerned could be impaired and may be subject to exchange controls and translation risks going forward.  The likely contraction in the availability of credit from financial institutions and the impact this will have on Unilevers liquidity risk are described under Financial below.

|Unilever is exposed to a variety of external financial risks.                                                                                                                              |  |  |  | Changes to the relative value of currencies can fluctuate widely and could have a significant impact on business results. Further, because
Unilever consolidates its financial statements in euros it is subject to exchange risks associated with the translation of the underlying net assets and earnings of its foreign subsidiaries.
 We are also subject to the imposition of exchange controls by individual countries which could
limit our ability to import materials paid in foreign currency or to remit dividends to the parent company.  Currency rates, along with demand cycles, can also result in significant swings in the prices of the raw materials needed to produce our goods.
 Unilever may face liquidity risk, i.e. difficulty in meeting its obligations, associated with
its financial liabilities. A material and sustained shortfall in our cash flow could undermine Unilevers credit rating, impair investor confidence and also restrict Unilevers ability to raise funds.
 We are exposed to market interest rate fluctuations on our floating rate debt. Increases in
benchmark interest rates could increase the interest cost of our floating rate debt and increase the cost of future borrowings. 
In times of financial market volatility, we are also potentially exposed to counter party risks with banks, suppliers and customers.
 Certain businesses have defined benefit pension plans, most now closed to new employees, which
are exposed to movements in interest rates, fluctuating values of underlying investments and increased life expectancy. Changes in any or all of these inputs could potentially increase the cost to Unilever of funding the schemes and therefore have
an adverse impact on profitability and cash flow.

|Compliance with laws and regulations is an essential part of Unilevers business operations.                                                                                               |  |  |  | Unilever is subject to local, regional and global laws and regulations in such diverse areas as product safety, product claims, trademarks,
copyright, patents, competition, employee health and safety, the environment, corporate governance, listing and disclosure, employment and taxes. 
Failure to comply with laws and regulations could expose Unilever to civil and/or criminal actions leading to damages, fines and criminal sanctions against us
and/or our employees with possible consequences for our corporate reputation. 
Changes to laws and regulations could have a material impact on the cost of doing business.
 Unilever is also exposed to varying degrees of risk and uncertainty related to other factors
including environmental, political, social and fiscal risks. All these risks could materially affect Unilevers business. There may be other risks which are unknown to Unilever or which are currently believed to be immaterial.

Better service on page 16. Please
also refer to The Unilever Group on page 1 of this report. Marketing channels Unilevers products are generally sold through our own sales force as well as through independent brokers, agents and distributors to chain, wholesale,
co-operative and independent grocery accounts, food service distributors and institutions. Products are physically distributed through a network of distribution centres, satellite warehouses, company-operated and public storage facilities, depots
and other facilities. Raw materials Our
products use a wide variety of raw and packaging materials which we source internationally, and which may be subject to price volatility. We saw commodity prices rise during the second half of 2011 and this looks set to continue into 2012. Seasonality Certain of our businesses, such as
ice cream, are subject to significant seasonal fluctuations in sales. However, Unilever operates globally in many different markets and product categories, and no individual element of seasonality is likely to be material to the results of the Group
as a whole. Intellectual property We have a
large portfolio of patents and trademarks, and we conduct some of our operations under licences that are based on patents or trademarks owned or controlled by others. We are not dependent on any one patent or group of patents. We use all appropriate
efforts to protect our brands and technology. Competition As a FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) company, we are competing with a diverse set of competitors. Some of these operate on an international scale like ourselves, while others have a more regional or local focus.

C. Organisational structure The information set forth under the heading Principal group companies and non-current investments on pages 109 and 110 of the Groups Annual Report
and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference: Please also refer to The Unilever
Group on page 1 of this report. D. Property, plant and equipment We have interests in properties in most of the countries where there are Unilever operations. However, none is material in the context of the Group as a whole. The properties are used predominantly to house
production and distribution activities and as offices. There is a mixture of leased and owned property throughout the Group. We are not aware of any environmental issues affecting the properties which would have a material impact upon the Group, and
there are no material encumbrances on our properties. Any difference between the market value of properties held by the Group and the amount at which they are included in the balance sheet is not significant. We believe our existing facilities are
satisfactory for our current business and we currently have no plans to construct new facilities or expand or improve our current facilities in a manner that is material to the Group.

Financial Review 2010 Basis of reporting The information set forth under the heading Basis of reporting
on page 25 of the Groups Annual Report and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference. Group results and earnings per share The following discussion summarises the results of the

billion increased 11.1%, with 7.3% due to currency. Underlying sales growth increased to 4.1%, driven in particular by an improvement in performance in Western Europe. Underlying volume growth of 5.8% was partially offset by the full year price
effect of negative 1.6%, though in the fourth quarter pricing turned positive on an in-quarter basis. Operating profit was 6.3 billion, compared with 5.0
billion in 2009, with higher one-off profits arising from the disposal of group companies and lower restructuring costs. Underlying operating profit increased by 12% to 6.6 billion, with underlying operating margin increasing by 0.2% to 15.0%. The cost of financing net
borrowings was 414 million,
15 million lower than 2009, as the adverse impact of currency was more than offset by lower average net debt. The interest rate on
borrowings was 4.4% and on cash deposits was 1.7%. The charge for pensions financing was a credit of 20 million compared with a net
charge of 164 million in 2009.


The effective tax rate was 25.5% compared with 26.2% in 2009 reflecting the geographic mix of profits and the impact
of the Italian frozen foods disposal. The underlying tax rate excluding the effect of restructuring, disposals and impairments was 27.1%. Net profit
from joint ventures and associates, together with other income from non-current investments contributed 187 million compared to 489 million in the prior year which benefited from the 327 million gain on disposal of the majority of the equity in JohnsonDiversey. Fully diluted earnings
per share increased 25%, to 1.46. This was driven by improved underlying operating profit, lower restructuring charges, lower pension
costs, the favourable impact of foreign exchange and higher profit on business disposal partially offset by a provision in respect of the European Commission investigation into consumer detergents. Business disposals include the disposal of the
Italian frozen foods business.

3.4 Key developments 

The relative strength of most major currencies in the region against the euro meant that the impact of exchange rates was significant, contributing 10.1% of the
overall turnover growth. 

Competitive intensity reached new heights in several key countries in 2010, with increased levels of mostly price-based competition. Against this competitive
background, underlying sales growth and volume growth represent strong and fully competitive performance. 

Negative price growth reflects actions taken to ensure that market position were protected against high levels of price based competition. 

Underlying operating margin was down by 0.5%, with stable gross margin, but investment in advertising and promotions significantly increased. 

Other key developments included the continued successful roll-out of the regional IT platform to a variety of countries. The Americas   million

1.6 Key developments 

The relative strength of most major currencies in the region against the euro meant that the impact of exchange rates was significant, contributing 9.0% of the
overall turnover growth. 

Market conditions in North America remained challenging throughout the year, with consumer confidence at low levels and competition proving increasingly intense.
Latin American markets were generally much stronger, although levels of competition again increased, particularly in Brazil.




Underlying sales growth of 4.0% was driven by strong performance in Latin America supported by encouraging levels of growth in North America. Strong progress in
the food categories in Brazil and Mexico, and Personal Care in Argentina contributed to positive volume market share performance. 

Underlying price growth was negative reflecting actions taken to ensure market positions were protected against high levels of price competition. 

Underlying operating margin was down 0.1% with investment in advertising and promotions increased from 2009. 

A key development in 2010 was the announcement of an agreement to acquire the Alberto Culver business. The transaction was completed in 2011. Western Europe   million

(1.8
) Key developments 

Competition continued to be intense in most parts of the region throughout 2010. In some markets and categories levels of price promotional activity accelerated
towards the end of the year. Against this competitive background, underlying sales growth of negative 0.4% represented robust performance. 

Underlying price growth was negative 1.8%, reflecting actions taken to ensure market positions were protected against high levels of price competition. 

The major factor behind the significant increase in operating profit was the profit on disposal of the Italian frozen foods business. Underlying operating margin
was up sharply by 1.7% reflecting success of cost saving initiatives which reduced indirect costs significantly. 

In other developments, the acquisition of the Sara Lee Personal Care business was completed in the fourth quarter. Other smaller bolt-on acquisitions were
announced during the year in ice cream.

Acquisitions and disposals - 2009 On 2 April 2009 we announced the completion of our purchase of the global TIGI professional hair product business and its supporting advanced education academies. TIGIs major brands include Bed Head,
Catwalk and S-Factor. Turnover of the business worldwide in 2008 was around US $250 million. The cash consideration of US $411.5 million was made on a cash and debt free basis. In addition, further limited payments related to future growth may be

We estimate that approximately 17% of
NVs ordinary shares were held in the United States (approximately 16% in 2010), while most holders of PLC ordinary shares are registered in the United Kingdom  approximately 98% in 2011 and 99% in 2010. NV and PLC are separate companies with separate stock exchange listings and different shareholders. Shareholders cannot convert or exchange the shares of one for
shares of the other and the relative share prices on the various markets can, and do, fluctuate. Each NV ordinary share represents the same underlying economic interest in the Unilever Group as each PLC ordinary share (save for exchange rate
fluctuations). If you are a shareholder of NV, you have an interest in a Dutch legal entity, your dividends will be paid in euros (converted into US
dollars if you have shares registered in the United States) and you may be subject to tax in the Netherlands. If you are a shareholder of PLC, your interest is in a UK legal entity, your dividends will be paid in sterling (converted into US dollars
if you have American Depositary Receipts) and you may be subject to UK tax. Nevertheless, the Equalisation Agreement means that as a shareholder of either company you effectively have an interest in the whole of Unilever. You have largely equal
rights over our combined net profit and capital reserves as shown in the consolidated accounts. The information set forth under the heading
Equalisation Agreement on page 42 of the Groups Annual Report and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference.


B. Related
party transactions The information set forth under the heading Note 23  Related party transactions on page 107 of the Groups
Annual Report and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference. Transactions with related
parties are conducted in accordance with agreed transfer pricing policies and include sales to joint ventures and associates. Other than those disclosed in the Groups Annual Report and Accounts (and incorporated herein as above), there were no
related party transactions that were material to the Group or to the related parties concerned that are required to be reported in 2011 or the two preceding years. C. Interest of experts and counsel Not applicable.

E. Taxation

Taxation for US persons holding shares in NV

The following notes are provided for guidance. US persons should consult their local tax advisers, particularly in connection with potential liability to pay US
taxes on disposal, lifetime gift or bequest of their shares. A US person is a US individual citizen or resident, a corporation organised under the laws of the United States, or any other legal person subject to US federal income tax on its
worldwide income.

Taxation on dividends in the Netherlands

As of 1 January 2007 dividends paid by companies in the Netherlands are in principle subject to dividend withholding tax of 15%. Where a shareholder is entitled to the benefits of the current Income Tax
Convention (the Convention) concluded on 18 December 1992 between the United States and the Netherlands, when dividends are paid by NV to:



| |  | a corporation organised under the laws of the United States (or any territory of it) having no permanent establishment in the Netherlands of which such shares
form a part of the business property; or
|- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | any other legal person subject to United States Federal income tax with respect to its worldwide income, having no permanent establishment in the Netherlands of
which such shares form a part of the business property, these dividends qualify for a reduction of withholding tax on dividends in the Netherlands from 15% to 5% if the beneficial owner is a company which directly holds at least 10% of the voting
power of NV shares. The Convention provides, subject to certain conditions, for a complete exemption from, or refund of, Dutch dividend withholding tax if the beneficial owner is a qualified Exempt Organisation as defined in Article
36 of the Convention.
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Where a United States person has a permanent establishment in the Netherlands, which has shares in NV
forming part of its business property, dividends it receives on those shares are included in that establishments profit. They are subject to income tax or corporation tax in the Netherlands, as appropriate, and tax on dividends in the
Netherlands will generally be applied at the full rate of 15%. This tax should be treated as foreign income tax eligible for credit against the shareholders United States income taxes.

Under the Convention, qualifying United States organisations that are generally exempt from United States taxes and that are constituted and operated exclusively to administer or provide pension, retirement or
other employee benefits may be exempt at source from withholding tax on dividends received from a Dutch corporation. A Competent Authority Agreement between the US and Dutch Tax Authorities on 6 August 2007, published in the US as Announcement
2007-75, 2007-2 Cumulative Bulletin 540 as amended by a Competent Authority Agreement published in the United States as Announcement 2010-26, 2010-1 Cumulative Bulletin 604, describes the eligibility of these US organisations for benefits under the
Convention and procedures for claiming these benefits.

A United States trust, company or organisation that is operated exclusively for religious,
charitable, scientific, educational or public purposes is subject to an initial 15% withholding tax rate. Such an exempt organisation is entitled to reclaim from Tax Authorities in the Netherlands a refund of the Dutch dividend tax, if and to the
extent that it is exempt from United States Federal Income Tax and it would be exempt from tax in the Netherlands if it were organised and carried on all its activities there.

##### Table of Contents

Form 20-F





If you are an NV shareholder resident in any country other than the United States or the Netherlands, any
exemption from, or reduction or refund of, dividend withholding tax in the Netherlands may be governed by the Tax Regulation for the Kingdom of the Netherlands or by the tax convention or any other agreement for the avoidance of
double taxation, if any, between the Netherlands and your country of residence.

United States taxation on dividends

If you are a United States person, the dividend (including the withheld amount) up to the amount of our earnings and profits for United States Federal income tax
purposes will be ordinary dividend income. Dividends received by an individual during taxable years before 2013 will be taxed at a maximum rate of 15%, provided the individual has held the shares for more than 60 days during the 121-day period
beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date, that NV is a qualified foreign corporation and that certain other conditions are satisfied. NV is a qualified foreign corporation for this purpose. Dividends received by an individual for taxable years
after 2012 will be subject to tax at ordinary income rates and an additional tax will apply to dividends and other investment income received by individuals with incomes exceeding certain thresholds. The dividends are not eligible for the dividends
received deduction allowed to corporations.

For US foreign tax credit purposes, the dividend is foreign source income, and withholding tax in the
Netherlands is a foreign income tax that is eligible for credit against the shareholders United States income taxes. However, the rules governing the US foreign tax credit are complex, and additional limitations on the credit apply to
individuals receiving dividends eligible for the 15% maximum tax rate on dividends described above.

Any portion of the dividend that exceeds our United
States earnings and profits is subject to different rules. This portion is a tax free return of capital to the extent of your basis in our shares, and thereafter is treated as a gain on a disposition of the shares.

Under a provision of the Dividend Tax Act in the Netherlands and provided certain conditions are satisfied, NV is entitled to a credit (up to a maximum of 3%
of the gross dividend from which dividend tax is withheld) against the amount of dividend tax withheld before remittance to tax authorities in the Netherlands. The United States tax authority may take the position that withholding tax in the
Netherlands eligible for credit should be limited accordingly.

Disclosure requirements for US individual holders

Beginning with the 2011 tax year, US individuals that hold certain specified foreign financial assets, including stock in a foreign corporation, with values in
excess of certain thresholds are required to file Form 8938 with their US Federal income tax return. Such Form requires disclosure of information concerning such foreign assets, including the value of the assets. Failure to file the form when
required is subject to penalties. An exemption from reporting applies to foreign assets held through a US financial institution, generally including a non-US branch or subsidiary of a US institution and a US branch of a non-US institution. Investors
are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of this disclosure requirement to their investment in the shares.

Taxation on capital gains in the Netherlands

Under the Convention, if you are a United States person and you
have capital gains on the sale of shares of a Dutch company, these are generally not subject to taxation by the Netherlands. An exception to this rule generally applies if you have a permanent establishment in the Netherlands and the capital gain is
derived from the sale of shares which form part of that permanent establishments business property.

Succession duty and gift taxes in the
Netherlands

Under the Estate and Inheritance Tax Convention between the United States and the Netherlands of 15 July 1969, individual US
persons who are not Dutch citizens who have shares will generally not be subject to succession duty in the Netherlands on the individuals death, unless the shares are part of the business property of a permanent establishment situated in the
Netherlands.

A gift of shares of a Dutch company by a person who is not a resident or a deemed resident of the Netherlands is generally not subject to
gift tax in the Netherlands. A non-resident Netherlands citizen, however, is still treated as a resident of the Netherlands for gift tax purposes for ten years and any other non-resident person for one year after leaving the Netherlands.

Taxation for US persons holding shares in PLC

The following notes are provided for guidance. US persons should consult their local tax advisers, particularly in connection with potential liability to pay US
taxes on disposal, lifetime gift or bequest of their shares. A US person is a US individual citizen or resident, a corporation organised under the laws of the United States, or any other legal person subject to US federal income tax on its worldwide
income.

United Kingdom taxation on dividends

Under United Kingdom law, income tax is not withheld from dividends paid by United Kingdom companies. Shareholders, whether resident in the United Kingdom or not,
receive the full amount of the dividend actually declared.

United States taxation on dividends

If you are a US person, the dividend up to the amount of our earnings and profits for United States Federal income tax purposes will be ordinary dividend income.
Dividends received by an individual during taxable years before 2013 will be taxed at a maximum rate of 15%, provided the individual has held the shares for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend
date, that PLC is a qualified foreign corporation and certain other conditions are satisfied. PLC is a qualified foreign

corporation for this purpose. Dividends received by an individual for taxable years after 2012 will be subject to
tax at ordinary income rates, and an additional tax will apply to dividends and other investment income received by individuals with incomes exceeding certain thresholds. The dividend is not eligible for the dividends received deduction allowable to
corporations. The dividend is foreign source income for US foreign tax credit purposes.

Any portion of the dividend that exceeds our United States
earnings and profits is subject to different rules. This portion is a tax free return of capital to the extent of your basis in our shares, and thereafter is treated as a gain on a disposition of the shares.

Disclosure Requirements for US individual holders

Beginning
with the 2011 tax year, US individuals that hold certain specified foreign financial assets, including stock in a foreign corporation, with values in excess of certain thresholds are required to file Form 8938 with their US Federal income tax
return. Such Form requires disclosure of information concerning such foreign assets, including the value of the assets. Failure to file the form when required is subject to penalties. An exemption from reporting applies to foreign assets held
through a US financial institution, generally including a non-US branch or subsidiary of a US institution and a US branch of a non-US institution. Investors are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible application of
this disclosure requirement to their investment in the shares.

UK taxation on capital gains

Under United Kingdom law, when you sell shares you may be liable to pay capital gains tax. However, if you are either:



| |  | an individual who is neither resident nor ordinarily resident in the United Kingdom; or
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | a company which is not resident in the United Kingdom
|- |  | -----------------------------------------------------

you will generally not be liable to United Kingdom tax on any capital gains made on disposal of your shares.

Two
exceptions are: if the shares are held in connection with a trade or business which is conducted in the United Kingdom through a branch or an agency; and if the shares are held by an individual who has left the UK for a period of non-residence of
less than five tax years having been resident for at least four of the seven tax years prior to leaving the UK.

UK inheritance tax

Under the current estate and gift tax convention between the United States and the United Kingdom, ordinary shares held by an individual shareholder who is:



| |  | domiciled for the purposes of the convention in the United States; and
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | is not for the purposes of the convention a national of the United Kingdom
|- |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

will not be subject to United Kingdom inheritance tax on:



| |  | the individuals death; or
|- |  | --------------------------

| |  | on a gift of the shares during the individuals lifetime.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------

The exception is if the shares are part of the business property of a permanent establishment of the individual in the United Kingdom or, in the case of a shareholder who performs independent personal services,
pertain to a fixed base situated in the United Kingdom.

The Unilever Group has appointed Citibank, N.A. (Citibank) as both its transfer agent and registrar pursuant to the New York Registered Share program

Although items 12.D.3 and 12.D.4 are not
applicable to Unilever N.V. the following fees, charges and transfer agent payments are listed, as any fee arrangement with Citibank will cover both programs.

Under the terms of the Transfer Agent Agreement for the Unilever N.V. New York Registered Share program, a New York Share (NYS) holder may have to pay the following service fees to the transfer agent:



| |  | Issuance of NYSs: Up to US 5¢ per NYS issued.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------

| |  | Cancellation of NYSs: Up to US 5¢ per NYS cancelled.

| |  | Fees and expenses incurred in connection with the delivery or servicing of shares on deposit.
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Transfer agent fees payable upon the issuance and cancellation of NYSs are typically paid to the transfer agent by the brokers (on behalf of their clients)
receiving the newly-issued NYSs from the transfer agent and by the brokers (on behalf of their clients) delivering the NYSs to the transfer agent for cancellation. The brokers in turn charge these transaction fees to their clients.

Note that the fees and charges an investor may be required to pay may vary over time and may be changed by us and by the Transfer Agent. Notice of any changes will
be given to investors.

Managements report on internal control over financial reporting

In accordance with the requirements of Section 404 of the US Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the following report is provided by management in respect of the Companys internal control over financial
reporting (as defined in rule 13a15(f) or rule 15d15(f) under the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934):



| |  | Unilevers management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Group;
|- |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Unilevers management has used the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) framework to evaluate the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting. Management believes that the COSO framework is a suitable framework for its evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting because it is free from bias, permits reasonably consistent
qualitative and quantitative measurements of internal controls, is sufficiently complete so that those relevant factors that would alter a conclusion about the effectiveness of internal controls are not omitted and is relevant to an evaluation of
internal control over financial reporting;
|- |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | Management has assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of 31 December 2011, and has concluded that such internal control
over financial reporting is effective; and
|- |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and PricewaterhouseCoopers Accountants N.V., who have audited the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended
31 December 2011, have also audited the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as at 31 December 2011 and have issued an attestation report on internal control over financial reporting. For the Auditors
Report please refer to Item 18 on page 24 of this report.

To the Directors and shareholders

Report of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm

In our opinion, the consolidated income statements and the related consolidated balance sheets, consolidated cash
flow statements, consolidated statements of comprehensive income and consolidated statements of changes in equity set forth under the heading Financial Statements on pages 64 to 108 (excluding Note 24 on page 108 of Unilever Groups
Annual Report and Accounts 2011 and the Guarantor financial information included in Item 18 of this Form 20-F present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Unilever Group at 31 December 2011 and 31 December 2010
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended 31 December 2011, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board and in conformity with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. Also in our opinion, the Group maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of 31 December 2011, based on criteria established
in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Groups Directors and management are responsible for these consolidated financial statements.

The Groups management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of
internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Managements report on internal control over financial reporting included in Item 15 of this Form 20-F. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these
consolidated financial statements and on the Groups internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting
was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall consolidated financial statements presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures
as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A companys internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and Directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

|(a) | The term Unilever parent entities includes Unilever N.V. and Unilever PLC. Though Unilever N.V. and Unilever PLC are separate legal entities, with
different shareholder constituencies and separate stock exchange listings, they operate as nearly as practicable as a single economic entity. Debt securities issued by entities in Unilever Group are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by both
Unilever N.V. and Unilever PLC.

|(b) | Figures revised from 2010 20-F to reflect amounts due from/to group companies. These figures are eliminated on consolidation.

| | In addition, the 2010 balance sheet for Unilever Group and non guarantor subsidiaries have been restated to include further facts and circumstances relating to the Sara Lee
acquisition which if known would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognised at that date. The information set forth under the heading Note 21 Acquisitions and disposals on pages 105 to 106 of the Groups Annual Report
and Accounts 2011 furnished separately on 2 March 2012 under Form 6-K is incorporated by reference.
