Restructuring of Vivendi
Environnement's Shareholder Base
The sale of Vivendi Environnement shares may, in certain jurisdictions (including,
but not limited to, the United States), be restricted by law. These documents
do not constitute an offer in countries in which countries such offer would
be illegal. Therefore, persons obtaining such documents are required to inform
themselves of and observe all such restrictions. Any failure to comply with
these restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any
such jurisdiction. Vivendi Universal and Vivendi Environnement do not accept
or assume any responsibility or liability for any violation by any person
whomsoever of any such restriction.
United States
The sale of shares is not being made, directly or indirectly, in the United
States or to U.S. Persons, and any announcements, press releases or other
materials announcing or describing the sale do not constitute an offer to
any U.S. Person. Such documents may not be electronically accessed by U.S.
Persons or from the United States. Copies of such documents are not being
and must not be mailed or otherwise distributed or sent in or into or from
the United States. Persons receiving such documents (including custodians,
nominees and trustees) must not distribute or send such documents in, into
or from the United States. Any purported acceptance of the sale of shares
that is post-marked in or otherwise dispatched from or evidences use of any
means or instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce of the United States
will be invalid.
The shares have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or under any relevant securities laws of any state
or other jurisdiction of the United States. Accordingly, the shares may not
be offered, sold, re-sold, delivered or transferred, directly or indirectly,
in, into or from the United States at any time except pursuant to the terms
of an applicable exemption under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable securities
laws of the United States.
I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT I AM NOT, AND AM NOT ACTING ON BEHALF OF, A U.S. PERSON
(AS DEFINED UNDER REGULATION S UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT) AND AM OUTSIDE
THE UNITED STATES.
I FURTHER CERIFY THAT I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO COMPLY WITH,
THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS DESCRIBED ABOVE AND THAT I AM ELIGIBLE TO ACCESS
THE DOCUMENTS RELATING TO THE SALE OF SHARES IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH TERMS
AND CONDITIONS.
