a. As of the stock option exercise dates, the weighted average price for Vivendi shares was €22.14 (compared to €19.68 for stock options<br />
exercised in 2014).<br />
b. At its meeting held on February 27, 2015, after review by the Governance, Nominating and Human Resources Committee, the Supervisory<br />
Board approved the level of satisfaction of objectives set for the cumulative fiscal years 2013 and 2014 for performance share plans<br />
granted in 2013. It confirmed that not all the criteria had been met for fiscal year 2014. The final grant of the 2013 performance share<br />
plans represents, depending on the subsidiaries of the group, between 62% and 80% of the initial grant. Consequently, 828,127 rights to<br />
performance shares granted in 2013 were cancelled. In 2014, the Supervisory Board confirmed a final grant at 88% of the 2012 plans.<br />
Consequently, among the instruments cancelled in 2014 were 335,784 stock options and 239,207 performance shares granted in 2012.<br />
c. In accordance with legal requirements, the number and strike price of stock options, as well as the number of performance shares were<br />
adjusted to take into account the impact for the beneficiaries of the distribution on June 30, 2014 of an ordinary distribution of €1 per<br />
share from additional paid-in capital. This adjustment had no impact on share-based compensation expenses related to the relevant<br />
stock option and performance share plans.<br />
d. The total intrinsic value of outstanding stock options was €57 million.<br />
