These excerpts taken from the ICI 6-K filed Mar 21, 2007. Adoption and disclosure of corporate governance guidelines
US companies listed on the NYSE are required to adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines. The Listing Rules of the UK Financial Services Authority require each listed company incorporated in the UK to include in its Annual Report and Accounts a narrative statement of how it has applied the principles of the Combined Code and a statement as to whether or not it has complied with the provisions of the Combined Code throughout the accounting period covered by the Annual Report and Accounts. As stated on page 14, ICI has applied the principles contained in Section I of the Combined Code and has complied throughout 2006, and to the date of this Annual Review, with the provisions set out therein as they apply to the Company. The Combined Code does not require ICI to disclose the full range of corporate governance guidelines with which it complies. In compliance with the governance rules of the NYSE and Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has determined that each member of the ICI Audit Committee satisfies the SEC independence requirements. Subsequent to this determination, the Company has filed with the NYSE a written affirmation that the Audit Committee complies with Section 303A of the NYSEs Listed Company Manual.

governance guidelines
US companies listed on the NYSE are required to adopt and disclose corporate governance guidelines. The Listing Rules of the UK Financial Services Authority require each listed company incorporated in the United Kingdom to include in its Annual Report and Accounts a narrative statement of how it has applied the principles of the Combined Code and a statement as to whether or not it has complied with the provisions of the Combined Code throughout the accounting period covered by the Annual Report and Accounts. Principles of business conduct
Shareholder communications
Overall responsibility for ensuring that there is effective communication with investors and that the Board understands the views of major shareholders rests with the Chairman, who makes himself available to meet shareholders for this purpose. On a day-to-day basis the Boards primary contact with major shareholders is via the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer who have regular dialogue with individual institutional shareholders and deliver presentations to analysts after the quarterly results. The Senior Independent Director and other members of the Board, however, are also available to meet major investors on request. The Board commissions an independent survey of investor views covering both the UK and US on a biennial basis which provides valuable feedback from investors. Individual shareholders have the opportunity at the Annual General Meeting to question the Chairman and through him the Chairmen of the Remuneration and Audit Committees. As an alternative, shareholders may leave written questions for response by the Company. After the Annual General Meeting, shareholders can meet informally with the Directors. ICI ANNUAL REVIEW 2004
The following is a summary of the full Remuneration Report that is contained on pages 43 to 54 in the ICI 2004 Annual Report and Accounts. The full Report can be found on the Companys website (www.ici.com) or copies may be obtained on request from the Company Secretariat as noted on page 24.
