The Board of Directors of SOLVAC S.A. has decided to pay a second interim dividend. Still subject to approval by the General Meeting of Shareholders, this interim dividend represents the balance of the total dividend payment for the 2011 accounting year.

Taking into account the first interim dividend decided in August, the total dividend is increased by 4.8% compared to that of the previous accounting year, namely EUR 4.53 gross per share (EUR 3.849 net per share).
| Gross dividend (in EUR) | 2010 | 2011 | |

| 2nd interim dividend | 1.73 | 1.94 | |
| Total | 4.32 | 4.53 |
This evolution is in conformity with the evolution of SOLVAY S.A.'s dividend (accounting year 2010 versus accounting year 2009).
The shares will be traded "ex dividend" on the Stock Exchange as from December 21, 2011.
