Share buy-back programme 2010-2012

On 27 May 2010, Richemont announced a new programme to buy-back up to 10 million Richemont ‘A’ shares through the market over the next two years.

On 19 May 2011, Richemont announced an extension to the 2010-2012 programme. The buy-back of a further 5 million shares was envisaged. The extended programme thus amounts to 15 million ‘A’ shares, representing 2.61 per cent of the capital and 1.44 per cent of the voting rights of Compagnie Financière Richemont SA. The ‘A’ shares acquired will not be cancelled and no second trading line will be introduced as a consequence of the buy-back programme. The ‘A’ shares to be acquired will be held in treasury to hedge awards to executives under the Group’s stock option plan.

Purchases were effected through share purchases on SIX Swiss Exchange at prevailing market prices or through the exercise of over-the-counter call options.

The extension to the programme necessitated regular reporting in accordance with the regulations of the Swiss Takeover Board. The evolution of the programme from 19 May 2011 may be viewed at the following address : http://www.copa.ch/transactions/detail/nr/0480

On 23 March 2012, the programme was terminated.
