Gross dividend of € 2 per share Procedures for taking advantage of an optional dividend

La Hulpe, 25 April 2014

"The General Assembly voted unanimously to distribute a gross dividend of 2 euro per share.

The Board of Directors of Atenor Group has again decided to offer the shareholders the possibility of an optional dividend. During the General Assembly that was held today the shareholders were informed of the concrete procedures relating to the optional dividend, including in particular the issue price and the acceptance period.

The capital increase through the contribution of dividend entitlements will take place on 26 May and will be realized within the scope of authorised capital.

This method of paying the dividend will make it possible to strengthen the group's equity, improve the balance sheet ratios and to retain liquidities in order to continue the development of all the projects in portfolio.

We are happy to announce that the group's major shareholders have expressed their intention to opt for the conversion of their dividend entitlements in capital."

STÉPHAN SONNEVILLE S.A., CEO

The General Assembly of the Shareholders of 25 April 2014 decided to distribute a gross dividend of 2 euro per share for a total amount of 10.50 million euro.

The dividend net of withholding tax will amount to 1.50 euro per ordinary share (25% withholding tax)

The materialisation of this dividend will result in the creation of a number 8 coupon.

Within the framework of this optional dividend, the shareholders will have the choice between:

  • the contribution of their net dividend entitlements to the capital of ATENOR GROUP, in exchange for new shares;
  • the payment of the dividend in cash or;
  • a combination of the two aforementioned choices.

In the event of the contribution of the net dividend entitlement to the capital,

the issue price per new share is set at 31.50 euro.

It was based on the average closing stock market price of the share during the reference period (from 4 March to 14 April 2014 inclusive) on the NYSE Euronext Brussels market, being 38.21 euro.

This average price was calculated with a discount on the issue price to the multiple of the net dividend of € 1.5, i.e. 21 shares.

This multiple constitutes the exchange ratio (number of coupons necessary to subscribe a new share). The application of this multiple leads to the determination of the issue price, which provides a discount on the average price (cum coupon) of 17.56% (or a discount in relation to the average price ex coupon of 13.01%).

The option period during which the shareholders can subscribe to the capital increase will take place from Monday, 5 May to Wednesday, 21 May 2014 at 16.00 (CET) inclusive.

Shareholders who do not express a choice during this option period and in the way stipulated for this purpose will receive the dividend in cash.

The amount of the capital increase will be equal to the number of new shares to be issued multiplied by the issue price, being 31.50 euro per ATENOR GROUP share.

The new shares will have the same form, the same ISIN code and will be listed on the same line as the existing shares. The holders of existing registered shares who subscribe to the optional dividend will receive registered shares.

The new shares, to which the no. 9 coupon is attached, issued within the scope of the increase of capital, will give the right to a dividend for the 2014 financial year.

Shareholders who want to contribute their dividend entitlements (in full or in part) to the capital of ATENOR GROUP in exchange for new shares should contact, between 5 May and 21 May 2014 inclusive:

  • ATENOR GROUP by post or by e-mail ([email protected]) with the subject line: optional dividend 2013, insofar as registered shares are concerned,
  • Any financial institution providing safeguarding of dematerialised shares,
  • Banque Degroof in particular for shares that have not been dematerialised or for "PRIOS" shares.

The financial service for this transaction is provided by Euroclear Belgium (as principal financial institution) or via any other financial institution. This service is free of charge for ATENOR GROUP shareholders.

The information note relating to the optional dividend and the Special Report of the Board of Directors of the same date will be published starting on 25 April 2014 on the site of ATENOR GROUP.
