                        No threat of collective resignation
                        of the Nestle Board of Directors


Vevey, 11 April 2005 - Following speculations and interpretations published by
the Swiss Sunday press, Nestle S.A. and its Board of Directors wish to underline
that there is no threat of collective resignation of the Board.

The Board made its position clear in relation to proposals made by a group of
shareholders entitled to add points to the agenda, one of which would prevent
the same person simultaneously holding the position of Chairman of the Board and
CEO.  The Board is opposed to these proposals and explained its objections
exhaustively when inviting shareholders to the 14 April 2005 General Meeting.
The Board considers that such a proposal would constitute a serious limitation
to its freedom of action on a point of strategic importance.

Nestle respects the right of its shareholders to make up their own minds and has
no intention of influencing them by making threats.
