PERNOD RICARD - Notice of meeting 2020

Important notice – Health situation Given the evolving situation with regard to the Covid-19 pandemic, it may be necessary for the Company to change the attendance procedures for the Shareholders’ Meeting on 27 November 2020. In the event that the conditions provided for by order no. 2020-321 of 25 March 2020 are met, the Shareholders’ Meeting on 27 November 2020 could be held without the public being present. We ask you to regularly check the Shareholders’ Meeting section on the website www.pernod-ricard.com, which will confirm the final arrangements for attending this Shareholders’ Meeting in accordance with health and/or legal requirements. Furthermore, due to the circulation of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and the government’s recommendations to avoid public gatherings, the Board of Directors calls for the utmost caution in this context and recommends that each shareholder give preference to postal voting or give proxy to the Chairman rather than being physically present, in order to limit the risk of spread of the virus during the Shareholders’ Meeting. The Company has taken all necessary measures to protect shareholders and, with this in mind, has decided, henceforth, that no gifts will be distributed this year and that no coffee reception will be held. The Company will make every effort to ensure that the social distancing measures are respected during the Shareholders’ Meeting but the Company will not incur any liability for any contamination of persons who decide, under their sole responsibility, to physically participate in the Shareholders’ Meeting. The Company has taken all measures to facilitate remote voting in order that shareholders can vote by remote means (postal vote or proxy) without physically participating in the Shareholders’ Meeting, using the voting form in the section dedicated to 2020 Shareholders’ Meetings on the Company’s website, www.pernod-ricard.com, Section – Investors/Shareholders – Our financial information – General Shareholders’ Meeting, or by Internet on the secure voting platform VOTACCESS. As part of the relationship between the Company and its shareholders, the Company strongly encourages shareholders to send all requests and documents by electronic means, to the following address: agpr2020@pernod-ricard.com .
