Proposed appropriation

The proposed dividend payable to Richemont unitholders will be € 0.04 per Richemont unit. This is equivalent to € 0.04 per 'A' bearer share in the Company and € 0.004 per 'B' registered share in the Company. It will be payable to Richemont unitholders on 19 September 2005 in respect of coupon number 5, free of charges but subject to Swiss withholding tax at 35 per cent, at the banks designated as paying agents.

The Swiss franc equivalent to be charged to retained earnings will be calculated at the euro/Swiss franc exchange rate prevailing at the date of the shareholders meeting at which the dividend is approved. The available retained earnings remaining after deduction of the dividend amount will be carried forward to the following business year.
