FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this
release, are forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In addition to the risks and
uncertainties noted in this release, there are certain factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the
statements made. These include: (1) the ability to achieve business plans,
including with respect to lower income consumers and growing existing sales and
volume profitably despite high levels of competitive activity, especially with
respect to the product categories and geographical markets (including developing
markets) in which the Company has chosen to focus; (2) the ability to
successfully execute, manage and integrate key acquisitions and mergers,
including (i) the Domination and Profit Transfer Agreement with Wella, and (ii)
the Company's merger with The Gillette Company, and to achieve the cost and
growth synergies in accordance with the stated goals of the Gillette
transaction; (3) the ability to manage and maintain key customer relationships;
(4) the ability to maintain key manufacturing and supply sources (including sole
supplier and plant manufacturing sources); (5) the ability to successfully
manage regulatory, tax and legal matters (including product liability, patent,
and other intellectual property matters), and to resolve pending matters within
current estimates; (6) the ability to successfully implement, achieve and
sustain cost improvement plans in manufacturing and overhead areas, including
the Company's outsourcing projects; (7) the ability to successfully manage
currency (including currency issues in volatile countries), debt (including debt
related to the Company's announced plan to repurchase shares of the Company's
stock), interest rate and certain commodity cost exposures; (8) the ability to
manage the continued global political and/or economic uncertainty and
disruptions, especially in the Company's significant geographical markets, as
well as any political and/or economic uncertainty and disruptions due to
terrorist activities; (9) the ability to successfully manage competitive
factors, including prices, promotional incentives and trade terms for products;
(10) the ability to obtain patents and respond to technological advances
attained by competitors and patents granted to competitors; (11) the ability to
successfully manage increases in the prices of raw materials used to make the
Company's products; (12) the ability to stay close to consumers in an era of
increased media fragmentation; and (13) the ability to stay on the leading edge
of innovation. For additional information concerning factors that could cause
