Unilever PLC ordinary 3 1/9 pence shares

b)

Nature of the transaction

i) Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each have vested based on the February 2016 conditional rights awards pursuant to the Unilever Global Share Incentive Plan 2007.

Share choice was offered which allows ULE members to choose, just before vesting, whether they want to receive net shares in the share types originally granted (Unilever N.V. (NV) and Unilever PLC (PLC)) or one share type only (NV or PLC).

Mr Blanchard elected to receive only PLC shares. To calculate the effect of 'share choice' on vesting, the total value for each award (both NV and PLC share types) is calculated using the performance factor and the closing share price on vesting, including dividend reinvestment accrued. The value of the share type not chosen (NV shares) is converted into the currency of the chosen share type (PLC shares), divided by the closing share price on vesting and this number of PLC shares is added to the original number of PLC shares that vested. The original awards of NV shares are cancelled and reduced to nil. Mr Blanchard received 13,545 Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each after using a performance factor of 132% and including dividend reinvestment.

ii) Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each have vested based on the February 2016 conditional rights awards pursuant to the Unilever Management Co-Investment Plan.

Mr Blanchard received 7,652 Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each after using a performance factor of 132% and including dividend reinvestment.

Nature of the transaction

i) Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each have vested based on the February 2016 conditional rights awards pursuant to the Unilever Global Share Incentive Plan 2007.

Share choice was offered which allows ULE members to choose, just before vesting, whether they want to receive net shares in the share types originally granted (Unilever N.V. (NV) and Unilever PLC (PLC)) or one share type only (NV or PLC).

Mr Engel elected to receive only NV shares. To calculate the effect of 'share choice' on vesting, the total value for each award (both NV and PLC share types) is calculated using the performance factor and the closing share price on vesting, including dividend reinvestment accrued. The value of the share type not chosen (PLC shares) is converted into the currency of the chosen share type (NV shares), divided by the closing share price on vesting and this number of NV shares is added to the original number of NV shares that vested. The original award of 4,724 PLC shares and the dividend reinvestment are cancelled and reduced to nil.

ii) Unilever PLC Ordinary shares of 3 1/9p each have vested based on the February 2016 conditional rights awards pursuant to the Unilever Management Co-Investment Plan.

Share choice was offered which allows ULE members to choose, just before vesting, whether they want to receive net shares in the share types originally granted (Unilever N.V. (NV) and Unilever PLC (PLC)) or one share type only (NV or PLC).

The value of the share type not chosen (PLC shares) is converted into the currency of the chosen share type (NV shares), divided by the closing share price on vesting and this number of NV shares is added to the original number of NV shares that vested. The original award of 1,922 PLC shares and the dividend reinvestment are cancelled and reduced to nil.
