Carrefour Dividend for Financial Year 2012

Regulatory News:

At the Annual General Meeting held today, Carrefour's (Paris:CA) shareholders approved the proposed €0.58 per share dividend for the 2012 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 €19.62. 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 proposed dividend, and rounded upward to the nearest euro cent.

The ex-date is set on May 2, 2013. The shareholders may opt for the dividend payment in cash or in new shares from May 2 to May 23, 2013 included, by sending their request to their financial intermediaries. For the shareholders who have not exercised their dividend payment option by May 23, 2013, the dividend shall only be paid in cash¹.

For the shareholders who have not opted for a dividend payment in shares by May 23, 2013, the dividend shall be paid in cash on June 7, 2013. For the shareholders who have opted to receive the dividend in shares, settlement and delivery of the shares will be on June 7, 2013.

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, 2013. An application to list these new shares on NYSE 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 20,783,827 shares (excluding additional shares issued for rounding purposes), representing approximately 2.93% of the share capital and 2.58% of the voting rights of Carrefour based on the total number of shares and voting rights as of March 31, 2013.
