April 30, 2015

 

This press release cancels and  replaces the press release published on April 23, 2015

 

At the Annual General Meeting, held April 23, 2015,  Technip's shareholders approved the proposed €2.00 per share dividend for the  2014 financial year and decided to offer shareholders an option to receive the  dividend payment in shares.

The issue price of the new shares to be issued in  consideration for the dividend has been set at €52.81. The price is equal to  90% of the average opening prices quoted on the regulated market of Euronext  Paris during the 20 trading days preceding the date of the Annual General  Meeting, less the net amount of the proposed dividend, and rounded upward to  the nearest euro cent.

The shares will be traded ex-date as of April 29,  2015. The shareholders may opt for dividend payment in cash or in new ordinary  shares from April 29 to May 15, 2015 included, by sending their request to  their financial intermediaries. For the shareholders who did not exercise their  dividend payment option by May 15, 2015, the dividend shall only be paid in  cash.1

For the shareholders who would not have opted for a  dividend payment in shares, the dividend shall be paid in cash on May 28, 2015.  For the shareholders who have opted for the payment of the dividend in shares,  settlement and delivery of the shares will also be on May 28, 2015.

If the amount of dividends for which the option is  exercised does not correspond to a whole number of shares, shareholders may  choose to either receive the rounded-up whole number of shares by paying the  difference in cash on the day they exercise the option or receive the rounded-down  whole number of shares with the balance in cash.

The shares issued as dividend payment will carry  dividend rights as from January 1, 2015. An application to list these new  shares on Euronext Paris will be made. The new shares will rank pari passu with existing shares and will be fully fungible with existing shares already  listed.

The maximum total number of new shares which may be  issued for the purpose of the payment of the dividend in shares is 4,271,703 shares (excluding additional shares issued for  rounding purposes), representing approximately 3.7% of the share capital and 3.4%  of the voting rights of Technip based on the total number of shares and voting  rights as of March 31, 2015.
