Title
Decisions taken by the General Meetings of Shareholders of 31 May 2006
Comments
The Annual General Meetings of Shareholders of Fortis S.A./N.V. and Fortis N.V. have approved all proposals put forward by the Board of Directors (including the proposals for dividend and the election and re-election of members of the Board of Directors) with the exception of item 5.2 of the agenda of Fortis S.A./N.V. (authorized capital) which was not adopted in Belgium.
Dividend
The meeting declared a gross dividend of EUR 1.16 per Fortis Share for the financial year 2005. As an interim dividend of EUR 0.52 per Fortis Share was paid in September 2005, the final dividend will amount to EUR 0.64 and will be payable from 22 June 2006.
The Fortis Share represents one share in each of the two parent companies, Fortis S.A./N.V. and Fortis N.V. Shareholders can opt to receive dividend from Fortis S.A./N.V., thus from the Belgian source, or from Fortis N.V., the Dutch source. They need to make their preference known during the dividend election period.
The schedule is as follows:
2 June 2006 Ex-dividend quotation
2 June 2006 Start of the dividend election period
16 June 2006 End of the dividend election period
22 June 2006 Payment of the 2005 final dividend (coupon no. 36)
Final gross dividend paid out by Fortis N.V. in the Netherlands will amount to EUR 0.64 per Fortis Share. Final net dividend will amount to EUR 0.48, being gross dividend less Dutch dividend withholding tax of 25% in principle.
Final gross dividend paid out by Fortis S.A./N.V. in Belgium will amount to EUR 0.64 per Fortis Share. Final net dividend will amount to EUR 0.48, being gross dividend less Belgian withholding tax of 25% in principle. Any shares accompanied by coupon no. 36 from the VVPR strip will be subject to Belgian withholding tax of only 15%, so net dividend of EUR 0.554 per share will be paid on those shares.
Board of Directors
Mr. Jan Slechte has been re-elected non-executive director for a period of one year, namely until the end of the Annual General Meeting of 2007.
