Business Wire
Regulatory News:
At the Annual General Meeting held today, Carrefour's (Paris:CA)
shareholders approved the proposed €0.68 per share dividend for the
2014 financial year and decided to offer shareholders an option to
receive the dividend payment in shares.
The issue price of the new shares to be issued in consideration
for the dividend has been set at €28.77. This issue price
represents 95% of the average opening prices quoted on the
regulated market of Euronext Paris during the 20 trading days
preceding the date of the Annual General Meeting, less the amount
of the dividend, and rounded upward to the nearest euro cent.
The dividend ex-date is set on June 17, 2015. The shareholders
may opt for the dividend payment in cash or in new shares from June
17 to July 7, 2015 included, by sending their request to their
financial intermediaries. For the shareholders who have not
exercised their dividend payment option by July 7, 2015, the
dividend shall only be paid in cash1.
For the shareholders who have not opted for a dividend payment
in shares, the dividend shall be paid in cash on July 17, 2015. For
the shareholders who have opted to receive the dividend in shares,
settlement and delivery of the shares will be as from July 17,
2015.
If the amount of dividends for which the option is exercised
does not correspond to a whole number of shares, shareholders may
choose to either receive the rounded-up whole number of shares by
paying the difference in cash on the day they exercise the option
or receive the rounded-down whole number of shares and the balance
in cash.
The shares issued as dividend payment will carry dividend rights
as from January 1, 2015. An application to list these new shares on
Euronext Paris will be made. The new shares will rank pari passu
with existing shares and will be fully fungible with existing
shares already listed.
The maximum total number of new shares which may be issued for
the purpose of the dividend payment in shares is 17,256,701 shares
(excluding additional shares issued for rounding purposes),
representing approximately 2.35% of the share capital and 2.09% of
the voting rights of Carrefour based on the total number of shares
and voting rights as of May 31, 2015.

different election and payment conditions and should consult the
