SAFE HARBOUR STATEMENT:

This announcement may contain forward-looking statements, including
 
'forward-looking
 
statements' within the meaning of the United States Private
 
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as 'expects',
 
'anticipates', 'intends' or the negative of these terms and other similar
 
expressions of future performance or results, including financial objectives to
 
2010, and their negatives are intended to identify such forward-looking
 
statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon current
 
expectations and assumptions regarding anticipated developments and other
 
factors affecting the Group. They are not historical facts, nor are they
 
guarantees of future performance. Because these forward-looking statements
 
involve risks and uncertainties, there are important factors that could cause
 
actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these
 
forward-looking statements, including, among others, competitive pricing and
 
activities, consumption levels, costs, the ability to maintain and manage key
 
customer relationships and supply chain sources, currency values, interest
 
rates, the ability to integrate acquisitions and complete planned divestitures,
 
the ability to complete planned restructuring activities, 
physical risks, environmental risks, the ability to manage regulatory, tax and
 
legal matters and resolve pending matters within current estimates, legislative,
 
fiscal and regulatory developments, political, economic and social conditions in
 
the geographic markets where the Group operates and new or changed priorities of
 
the Boards.
 
Further details of potential risks and uncertainties affecting the
 
Group are described in the Group's filings with the London Stock Exchange,
 
Euronext Amsterdam and the US Securities and Exchange Commission, including the
 
Annual Report & Accounts on Form 20-F. These forward-looking statements speak
 
only as of the date of this announcement. Except as required by any applicable
 
law or regulation, the Group expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking
 
to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements
 
contained herein to reflect any change in the Group's expectations with regard
 
thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such
 
statement is based
