This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (the "Post-Effective
Amendment") relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8
(Registration Nos. 333-185299 and 333-185299-01) (the "Registration
Statement") of Unilever, N.V., a Netherlands corporation ("Unilever
N.V."), and of Unilever PLC, an English Corporation ("Unilever
PLC," together with Unilever N.V., the "Registrants"), initially
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 6,2012. The Registration Statement covers 6,000,000 Ordinary Shares,
par value €0.16 per share of Unilever N.V. ("N.V. Ordinary
Shares"), and 1,300,000 Ordinary Shares, par value 3 1/9 pence of
Unilever PLC ("PLC Ordinary Shares"), which are offered or sold
pursuant to the Unilever North America Omnibus Equity Compensation
Plan (the "Plan").
Pursuant to Rule 429 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Securities Act"), the prospectus relating to this
Registration Statement is a combined prospectus relating also to
registration statements on Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-103491 and
333-103491-01), filed by the Registrants on February 27,2003. Pursuant to Rule 416, the amount of shares registered
on those registration statements was adjusted based on the May 24,
2006 3-for-1 stock split of Unilever N.V. New York Registry Shares
and a consolidation of Unilever PLC American Depositary Receipts
("ADRs") and ordinary shares in the form of ADRs whereby Unilever
PLC ADRs, which previously equaled four Unilever PLC Ordinary
Shares, were adjusted to equal one Unilever PLC Ordinary Share
resulting in a 1.8-for-1 share adjustment for holders of ordinary
shares in the form of ADRs. Accordingly, the shares
registered on the registration statements were adjusted from
40,500,000 Unilever N.V. New York Registry Shares to 121,500,000
ordinary shares and from 65,500,000 ordinary shares in the form of
ADRs to 117,900,000 ordinary shares.
Effective November 29, 2020, Unilever N.V. and Unilever PLC
consummated a cross-border merger with Unilever PLC surviving as
the single parent company of the Unilever group. Accordingly,
Unilever N.V. is no longer issuing shares under the Plan. In
accordance with the undertaking made by the Registrants in the
Registration Statement to remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities that remain unsold
at the termination of the offering, and pursuant to the power
conferred on the Registrants in accordance with the provisions of
Rule 478 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the
Registrants are filing this Post-Effective Amendment to remove from
registration the N.V. Ordinary Shares that remain unsold as of the
date of filing of this Post-Effective Amendment. The Registration
Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the
deregistration of such shares.
