Press release June 17, 2014

Success for the launch of a bond offering in Switzerland CHF 150 million, 8 year maturity, annual coupon of 1.75 %

Accor today successfully set the terms of a 8 year bond inaugural issue for an amount of CHF 150 million with an annual coupon of 1.75%. It follows the announcement of the acquisition of an 11 hotel portfolio in Switzerland from AXA REIM made last May 27.

Thanks to the solid orderbook, the transaction could therefore be completed within a very short time, and at a very favorable price. This operation reflects the high quality of the Accor signature, and the investors' confidence.

Accor's long-term senior debt is rated BBB- by Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings.

UBS and Commerzbank acted as Joint Bookrunners for this bond issue.
