RICHEMONT PUBLISHES THE NOTICE OF MEETING FOR ITS 2022 AGM
Richemont (the "Company") announces the publication of its Notice of Meeting for the upcoming annual general meeting ("AGM") to be held
on 7 September 2022. The Notice of Meeting is available for download from the Richemont website at AGM/EGM | Investors (richemont.com).
The Company's Board proposes in particular an ordinary dividend of CHF 2.25 per 'A' share and CHF 0.225 per 'B' share, and an additional
special dividend of CHF 1.00 per 'A' share and CHF 0.10 per 'B' share. The Board further proposes the re-election of all its members for
a further one-year term, with the exception of Messrs. Ruggero Magnoni and Jan Rupert, who had already informed the Board that they will
not seek re-election at this AGM.
The Notice of Meeting also includes the items requested by Bluebell Capital Partners Ltd. ("Bluebell"). After careful consideration, the Board
recommends to vote against the designation of Bluebell's candidate as representative of the holders of 'A' shares, and against the election of that
person to the Board. The Board proposes the election of its independent director Ms. Wendy Luhabe as representative of the holders of 'A' shares
instead of the candidate proposed by Bluebell.
The Board is further recommending to vote against the changes to the Company's articles of incorporation proposed by Bluebell.
The Board will provide further information on its recommendations regarding Bluebell's proposals in its letter to shareholders.
