"Eurazeo rolls out a vigorous anddiversified investment

R OUR MODEL IS BUILT AROUND LOYALTY AND STABILITY

strategy combining performance and risk management.

Eurazeo’s strength lies in its stable shareholder base. The company has a core of entrepreneurial and family shareholderswho share its long-termvision of the private equity business. This stability is the key to its independence and ability to create sustainable value. R A TOTAL SHAREHOLDER RETURN THAT GREATLY SURPASSES MARKET PERFORMANCES In line with its long-term vision, Eurazeo coordinates its activity in order to create value and return for its shareholders in the long term. Over the long term, the Eurazeo share clearly outperforms, with a Total Shareholder Return (TSR) of + 381% whereas the CAC 40, rose 126% during the same period. The active share buyback and distribution policy that Eurazeo has adopted for its shareholders contributes to this outperformance. R IMPROVED DIVIDENDS With regard to dividend distribution for shareholders, Eurazeo is committed to its policy over the long term. Since 2004, its distribution has steadily increased on average by +6.4% (24% increase) per year. Circumstances permitting, exceptional dividends are paid out in addition to ordinary dividends. In respect of 2017, a per share dividend of €1.25will be proposed to the next Shareholders’ Meeting. This will be accompanied by the grant of one newshare for every twenty shares held.

The aimof this approach is tooffer our shareholders an attractiveperformanceover the long termwithmitigated risks. This approachensures genuine financial stability andan attractiveoverall rate of return in the long term. Eurazeo strives tobuild long- standing relationships of trust with its shareholders and the financial community as a wholebyproviding regular, transparent andhigh-quality reporting."
