DISTRIBUTION POLICY
The dividends paidby Groupama SA were paid in euros. The dividend proposal was submitted to the General Meeting after the allocation of the earnings is proposed by the Board of Directors. Groupama SA determined its dividend distribution policy on the basis of its consolidated current income minus subsidies paid to regional mutuals. When considering the dividend to be paid for a given year, Management sought to reconcile (i) the prudent management of capital, (ii) the reinvestment of past earnings to support the development of businesses and (iii) the objectives set by the controlling shareholder.
Note that 99.98% of the dividend was paid to the controlling shareholderof Groupama SA,and 0.02%was paid to the minority shareholders. On the day of the conversion of the Company into a National Agricultural Reinsurance Mutual, a form of company without capital, the Groupama SAshares held by the minority shareholders were cancelled. The shares held by the member mutuals were converted into mutual certificates. Going forward, the Company will be able to pay, under certain conditions, remuneration for these mutual certificates (see section 6.3 below).
