2.3.1 ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The amount of dividend payable on each Class B share will be allocated among Class B shareholders of record on the ex-dividend date. B. At their General Meeting, shareholders will also be asked to approve the distribution of a dividend of €23,732,996 to ordinary shareholders, i.e . a gross dividend of €0.65 per ordinary share. This dividend corresponds to 3% of net asset value, as presented in the consolidated financial statements. In proposing this dividend amount, the Supervisory Board intends to continue implementing the dividend policy Altamir announced in 2013. This policy, approved by the Supervisory Board, is in line with the investment strategy implemented by the Management Company and regularly presented to the Board. This investment strategy is part of an overall growth objective. These dividends are paid from the capital gains realised by the Company on equity investments held for more than two years. For individual shareholders resident in France, these distributed dividends do not qualify for the 40% exclusion provided for in Article 158-3-2° of the French Tax Code. The ex-dividend date for ordinary shares will be 23 May 2018 and the dividend on ordinary shares will be paid to shareholders on 25 May 2018. In the event that the Company owns some of its own ordinary shares on the ex-dividend date, the amount corresponding to the dividends not paid in respect of these shares will be allocated to retained earnings. C. Lastly, shareholders will be asked to allocate the remainder of net income for the year, i.e . €34,335,930, to reserves. D. In accordance with the provisions of Article 243 bis of the French Tax Code, the following dividends and income were distributed in respect of the previous three financial years:
