The declaration of a gross dividend of EUR 0.44 on each ordinary registered share with a par value of CHF 6.70 from the general capital contribution reserve, as shown in the Stand-Alone Financial Statements has been approved. Own shares held directly by Coca-Cola HBC AG are not entitled to dividends. The total aggregate amount of the dividends shall be capped at an amount of CHF 200,000,000 (the "Cap"), and will reduce the general capital contribution reserve of CHF 5,948,183,249 as shown in the Stand-Alone Financial Statements, by a maximum of CHF 200,000,000. To the extent that the dividend calculated as EUR 0.44 per share would exceed the Cap on the day of the Annual General Meeting, due to the exchange rate determined by the Board of Directors in its reasonable opinion, the Euro per share amount of the dividend shall be reduced on a pro rata basis so that the aggregate amount of all dividends paid does not exceed the Cap. Payment of the dividend is anticipated to be made on 25 July 2017 to holders of Coca-Cola HBC AG shares on the record date of 30 June 2017.
