Exchange rate applicable for dividend payable on Depository Receipts in respect of underlying CFR DRs Compagnie Financiere Richemont SA Depositary Receipts Issued by Richemont Securities SA ("Richemont Securities" or "Richemont") (Incorporated in Switzerland) Share code: CFR ISIN: CH0045159024 Depositary Receipt Code: CFR RICHEMONT SECURITIES SA – EXCHANGE RATE APPLICABLE FOR DIVIDEND PAYABLE ON DEPOSITORY RECEIPTS IN RESPECT OF UNDERLYING COMPAGNIE FINANCIERE RICHEMONT SA 'A' SHARES ('CFR DRs') The dividend payable to holders of Richemont Securities' CFR DRs resident in the South African Common Monetary Area ('SACMA') is derived from the dividend paid by Compagnie Financière Richemont SA, Switzerland ('CFR') to holders of Richemont 'A' shares. The CFR DR dividend payable to SACMA residents is payable in rand. The Board of Directors has recommended a total dividend of CHF 1.40 per share. It is anticipated that this dividend will be approved by shareholders of CFR at the annual general meeting to be held on 17 September 2014 in Geneva. The dividend payable by CFR will be subject to Swiss withholding tax of 35 per cent, resulting in a net dividend of CHF 0.9100 per share. Richemont Securities SA will operate a programme for South African tax residents, who will generally be eligible to recover 20 per cent of the 35 per cent withholding tax levied on the CFR dividend. Full details of the programme will be mailed to holders of CFR DRs on 3 October 2014, at the time of the payment of the dividend. In the past certain CFR DR Holders may have lost their opportunity to reclaim the withholding tax due to incorrect contact information being supplied to STRATE. We suggest that CFR DR Holders contact their CSDP or stockbroker in advance of the payment to ensure the information held in the STRATE system is correct. Should CFR DR holders not receive details of the withholding tax recovery process by mail by late October 2014 they should contact their CSDP, stockbroker or Computershare Investor Services (Pty) Limited ("Computershare"). As confirmed last year, a binding class ruling has been obtained from the South African Revenue Service. In terms of this ruling, depository receipt holders are not subject to additional South African withholding tax because of the credit available in respect of the Swiss withholding tax paid. It is also confirmed that there is no need for the depository receipt holders to make any declarations in order to qualify for the exemption from the South African withholding tax. As CFR DRs trade in the ratio of 10 DRs to each Richemont 'A' share, the dividend entitlement per CFR DR is as follows: Gross dividend Withholding tax Net dividend Per CFR DR at 35% in Swiss francs In Swiss francs in Swiss francs Total 0.14000 (0.04900) 0.09100 The exchange rate applicable for the conversion of Swiss franc to rand for payment of the dividend is ZAR 11.67600: Swiss franc 1. Accordingly the net dividend payable per CFR DR is ZAR 106.25160 cents, as set out in the table below: Gross dividend Withholding tax Per CFR DR at 35% Net dividend in ZAR cents in ZAR cents in ZAR cents Total 163.46400 (57.21240) 106.25160 Under the withholding tax recovery programme qualifying SACMA residents will currently be entitled to recover the equivalent of CHF 0.028 per CFR DR. The amount recovered will be converted into rand and will be remitted to CFR DR holders who participate in the programme once the reimbursement of the tax has been received from the Swiss Federal Tax Authorities ('SFTA'). Your attention is drawn to the fact that the refunds are to be paid by the SFTA in Swiss francs. The Swiss francs received by Richemont Securities SA will be converted into rand at the rand: Swiss franc exchange rate ruling at the time of receipt. Bearing in mind the fluctuating rand: Swiss franc exchange rate, the effective rate used to arrive at the rand refund payment to CFR DR holders will differ from that applicable to the dividend payment itself. The anticipated payment dates for the dividend in respect of the South African CFR DRs are as follows: Last date to trade "cum dividend" Thursday, 18 September 2014 Trading commences "ex-dividend" from the commencement of business on Friday, 19 September 2014 CFR DR dividend record date Friday, 26 September 2014 CFR Dividend payment date Friday, 3 October 2014 CFR DR Holders may not dematerialise or rematerialise their holding of Richemont DRs between Friday, 19 September 2014 and Friday, 26 September 2014, both dates inclusive.
