The number of shares of Delhaize Group SA/NV registered for the purposes of the extraordinary shareholders' meeting of April 23, 2012 was not sufficient to meet the quorum requirement to consider and vote upon the matters proposed for a vote at that meeting. Consequently, such matters are being re-proposed, together with matters proposed for the ordinary shareholders' meeting, at a combined ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meeting, which has no quorum requirement.
The Board of Directors of Delhaize Group SA cordially invites the holders of shares, bonds and warrants issued by the Company to attend the ordinary and extraordinary shareholders' meeting of the Company that will be held on Thursday May 24, 2012, at 3.00 p.m. (CET) at the Corporate Support Office of the Company, square Marie Curie 40 in 1070 Brussels, Belgium.
