Retail Holdings N.V. Distribution Payment Date

WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, Jan. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Retail Holdings N.V. (Symbol: RHDGF) -- Retail Holdings N.V. ("ReHo")  issued today this further explanation regarding the payment date of the previously announced $9.00 per Share distribution. The payment date for the distribution is January 10, 2018.

The $9.00 per Share distribution represents approximately 42% of ReHo's closing stock price on January 3, 2018. Pursuant to NASDAQ rules, when a distribution  is declared in a per share amount that exceeds 25% of a company's stock price, the date on which that company's shares will begin to trade without the distribution, or ex-distribution, is the first business day following the payment date.  Because the distribution is expected to exceed 25% of ReHo's Share price, NASDAQ will apply this rule, and ReHo expects, in accordance with this rule, that the ex-dividend date as set by NASDAQ, will be January 11, 2018, the first business day following the payment date for the distribution.  Shareholders of record on the record date, January 4, 2018, who sell their Shares prior to the ex‑distribution date, January 11, 2018, will not receive the $9.00 cash distribution.

Shareholders who have additional questions or who require further clarification, are advised to contact their broker.
