Dear Sir,
This is to inform you that the Board of Directors have, at the board meeting today, approved amendments, to the existing Technical Collaboration Agreement (TCA), with Unilever Plc to include

(i) additional product categories where technical inputs are provided by Unilever

(ii) products of specified categories manufactured by third party manufacturers where technical inputs developed by Unilever are made available to the third party manufacturer.

In addition, the Board of Directors have approved a trademark license agreement with Unilever which provides for payment of trademark royalty at the rate of 1% of net sales on specific brands, where Unilever owns the trade mark and HUL is the license user. The above amendments are within the Government of India guidelines for payment of royalty.

The revised TCA and the trademark license agreement will come into effect 1st January, 2010 and will enable the company to continue to leverage Unilever’s capabilities to further build and grow the business in India.

You are requested to take this information on record and make the same available for the benefit of the investing public.

Yours faithfully
For Hindustan Unilever Limited

Ashok Gupta
Executive Director – Legal & Company Secretary
