RNS No 3446d UNILEVER PLC & NV 15th July 1998 UNILEVER AGREES SALE OF PLANT BREEDING INTERNATIONAL TO MONSANTO FOR #320 MILLION Unilever announced today that it has agreed to sell Plant Breeding International Cambridge Limited (PBIC) to Monsanto Company, for #320 million cash. The transaction includes PBIC operations in Scotland and France together with PBI Saatzucht, its German affiliate company. The UK government has been informed of the proposed sale. Completion is expected on July 16, although the transfer of PBI Saatzucht will be deferred pending regulatory clearance from the German competition authorities. PBIC is a successful business producing and marketing worldwide new and improved crop varieties. It also has significant breeding programmes for winter wheat, barley, oil seed rape, beans, peas and potatoes. It employs some 280 people - at Cambridge, in its breeding stations in France and Germany and at its potato facility in Scotland. In April this year, Unilever announced its intention to sell PBIC as part of its continuing focus on consumer goods products and the development of its portfolio of foods and home and personal care businesses. The sale to Monsanto meets PBIC's need to develop further its plant breeding capability by gaining access to the research and development of a global plant science company. It is therefore considered to be in the best long-term interests of the company, its employees and European agriculture. PBIC was formed in 1987 when Unilever acquired the breeding and applied science resources of the Plant Breeding Institute and the National Seed Development Organisation.
