Forward-looking statements

     This presentation and its related comments contain forward-looking statements, including
     statements about future events, future financial performance, plans, strategies and expectations.
     Forward-looking statements are associated with words such as, but not limited to, "believe,"
     "anticipate," "expect," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "project," "could," "may," "might" and other
     words of similar meaning.

     Forward-looking statements are by their very nature associated with risks and uncertainties that may
     cause actual results to differ materially from expectations, both positively and negatively. The risks
     and uncertainties may, among other things, include unexpected developments in i) the ability to
     develop and market new products; ii) the demand for Novozymes’ products, market-driven price
     decreases, industry consolidation, and launches of competing products or disruptive technologies in
     Novozymes’ core areas; iii) the ability to protect and enforce the company’s intellectual property
     rights; iv) significant litigation or breaches of contract; v) the materialization of the company’s
     growth platforms, notably the opportunity for marketing biomass conversion technologies or the
     development of microbial solutions for broad-acre crops; vi) the political conditions, such as
     acceptance of enzymes produced by genetically modified organisms; vii) the global economic and
     capital market conditions, including, but not limited to, currency exchange rates (USD/DKK and
     EUR/DKK in particular, but not exclusively), interest rates and inflation; viii) significant price
     decreases on inputs and materials that compete with Novozymes’ biological solutions. The company
     undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of future
     developments or new information.
