What are the rewards of Air Liquide’s Loyalty Bonus
A Bonus to thank you for your loyalty.
Good to know…
In the case of a gift (simple or hand-to-hand) to a spouse or a relative to the degree of succession, or an inheritance, the Loyalty Bonus is preserved as the holding period is maintained (see Factsheet No. 11).
After holding registered shares for two full calendar years, you benefit from:
+ 10%
on the amount of dividends and on the number of free shares distributed during allocation operations(a).
Your registered shares are eligible for the Loyalty Bonus: you benefit automatically, so there is no need to take any action on your part if your shares meet the three criteria mentioned opposite.
How can I benefit from the Loyalty Bonus?
You just need to hold your shares:
- with a financial institution in intermediary registered form or directly with Air Liquide;
- for more than two full calendar years (January 1 to December 31);
- and still hold the shares on the day before the dividend is paid or on the day before the free shares are granted.
