FOURTH RESOLUTION: ALLOCATION OF NET INCOME – DISTRIBUTION OF AN ORDINARY DIVIDEND

Explanatory statement In the fourth resolution, the allocation of net income for the period, in the amount of €2,528,515,836.01, is submitted foryour approval. Of this amount, pursuant to the Articles of Association (Article 26), the sum of €16,941,056.10 is to be distributed to the Active Partner. You are asked to: allocate €300,000,000.00 to other reserves; s resolve to reallocate €2,637,614.03 from the special reserve for the purchase of original works of art to the “Retained earnings” item. s The Supervisory Board proposes that you set the ordinary dividend at €13.00 per share. The proposed distribution would thus be €1,372,402,356.00. For shareholder beneficiaries who are natural persons fiscally domiciled in France, this entire dividend will be subject to a single flat‑rate withholding tax at the overall rate of 30%. The latter will consist in the application of tax on the income paid as an interim payment (so‑called flat‑rate withholding tax) withheld at source at a single flat rate of 12.8% of gross revenue, to which will be added social security withholdings of 17.2%. This flat‑rate taxation at the single rate of 12.8% will be automatically applicable unless the progressive tax scale is opted for overall, allowing the taxpayer to benefit from the 40% tax allowance . For shareholders who are not fiscally domiciled in France, the dividend distributed is subject to withholding tax at source at one of the rates specified in Article 187 of the French General Tax Code ( Code général des impôts ), in accordance with Article 119 bis of said Code, which may be reduced in application of any tax agreement concluded between France and the State in which the beneficiary is fiscally resident. An interim dividend of €3.50 per share having been paid on 22February 2023, the balance of the ordinary dividend, i.e. €9.50 per share, will be detached from the share on 25April 2023 and will be payable in cash on 27April 2023 on the positions closed in the evening of 26April 2023. As Hermès International is not entitled to receive dividends for shares held in treasury, the corresponding sums will be transferred to “Retained earnings” on the date the dividend becomes payable. The five‑year summary of the Company’s financial data required under Article R.225‑102 of the French Commercial Code ( Code de commerce ) is presented in the 2022 universal registration document (chapter 6 “Parent company financial statements”, §6.6). 1. Within the scope of the single flat‑rate withholding tax, taxpayers may opt, expressly and irrevocably before the deadline for the declaration and overall for all their income defined in Article 200‑A 1 of the French General Tax Code, for their income to be taxed using the progressive income tax scale, in accordance with Article 200‑A 2 of the French General Tax Code ( Code général des impôts ) . 1
