The Board of Directors of Total (Paris:FP) (LSE:TTA) (NYSE:TOT) met on September 21, 2016 and declared a first quarter 2016 interim dividend of €0.61 per share and offered, under the conditions set by the fourth resolution at the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting of May 24, 2016, the option for shareholders, including holders of its American Depositary Shares, to receive the first quarter 2016 interim dividend in cash or in new shares of the Company.

The share price for the new shares which will be issued as payment of the first quarter 2016 interim dividend is set by the Board of Directors at €38.00. This price is equal to the average opening price on the Euronext Paris for the twenty trading days preceding September 21, 2016, reduced by the amount of the interim dividend, with a 10% discount, rounded up to the nearest cent. This price is the minimum price set by the fourth resolution at the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting of May 24, 2016. Shares issued in this way will carry immediate dividend rights and will accordingly give the right to any distribution decided from the date they are issued. An application will be made to admit the new shares for trading on the Euronext Paris market.

The ex-dividend date for the first quarter 2016 interim dividend is set for September 27, 2016. The period for exercising the option will begin on September 27, 2016, and will end on October 6, 2016, both dates inclusive. The option may be exercised on request with authorized financial brokers.

For Total’s American Depositary Shares (ADS), the ex-dividend date for the first quarter 2016 interim dividend is set for September 22, 2016. The period for exercising the option will begin on September 27, 2016, and will end on October 3, 2016, both dates inclusive. The option may be exercised on request with authorized financial brokers.

Shareholders who do not exercise this option within the specified time period will receive the whole of the interim dividend due to them in cash. The date for the payment in cash is set for October 14, 2016.

For shareholders who elect to receive the first quarter 2016 interim dividend in shares, the date for the delivery of shares is set for October 14, 2016. For Total’s American Depositary Shares, the delivery of ADSs is set for October 24, 2016.

If the amount of the first quarter 2016 interim dividend for which the option is exercised does not correspond to a whole number of shares, the shareholders may opt to receive either the number of shares immediately above, having paid a cash adjustment on the day they exercise their option, or the number of shares immediately below, plus a balancing cash adjustment.
