Resolution 2: 2022 Directors' Remuneration Report

While the Board is pleased that all other resolutions were carried with large majorities, we are disappointed that the advisory vote on the Directors' Remuneration Report was not passed.

We are committed to shareholder engagement and will consult over the next few months to listen carefully to feedback and determine any next steps.

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, we will publish a further statement detailing the outcome of our shareholder engagement in relation to the above resolution, including any actions taken as a result, within six months of the 2023 Annual General Meeting.

NOTES:

• The 'For' vote includes votes given at the Chairman's discretion and details of proxy votes cast are included in the table above.
• As at 11.30am on 3 May 2023 the total number of issued ordinary shares of Unilever PLC was 2,629,293,772. Of those ordinary shares, 103,861,999 were held as treasury shares and 1,715,172 ordinary shares (including ordinary shares represented by Unilever PLC ADSs) were held by or on behalf of companies in the Unilever Group (the "Unilever Group Shares"). The voting rights attaching to the Unilever Group Shares are not exercisable. Therefore, as at 11.30am on 3 May 2023, the total number of Unilever PLC ordinary shares with exercisable voting rights was 2,523,716,601.

A 'Vote withheld' is not a vote in law and will not be counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes 'for' and 'against' a resolution.

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2 copies of all the resolutions passed, other than ordinary business, will be submitted to and available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism. A copy of the resolutions can also be found in the Chairman's Letter and Notice of Meeting which is available on our website: www.unilever.com/AGM

A number of these risks have increased as a result of the current war in Ukraine.
