Casino, Guichard-Perrachon
(« Casino ») announces that it has been
informed on 19 November 2024 of the signing of a share purchase
agreement by which Trinity Investments Designated Activity Company,
whose management company is Attestor Limited («
Trinity ») is to transfer to EP Equity Investment
III S.à r.l. (« EPEI »)1 its

(« FRH »)1.

(Fimalac) vis-à-vis Casino, and Trinity will lose its
rights under the Shareholders’ Agreement2 to which it
will no longer be a party. Mr. Thomas Doerane would resign from his
position as observer to the Board of directors and Strategic
committee of Casino as of the closing of the disposal.
Casino points out that, as of a date hereof,
Trinity directly holds 10.05% of share capital of Casino.
The closing of the transaction would take place no
later than 30 juin 2025, subject to approval by the relevant
regulatory authorities.
