Under Swiss law, abstentions are not counted towards the calculation of the majority required for passage of the proposals.
With respect to the dividend approved under Proposal 3 described under Item 5.07 above, the Company has announced that the ex-dividend dates (the first trading day without the right to receive the dividend payment) are expected to be Thursday, September 17, 2015 on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and Friday, September 18, 2015 on the SIX Swiss Exchange, the record date is Monday, September 21, 2015, and the payment date is expected to be Tuesday, September 22, 2015. In order to be eligible to receive the dividend payment, Logitech shares must be purchased by the end of the official trading day on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on September 16, 2015 or by the end of the official trading day on the SIX Swiss Exchange on September 17, 2015. Given the unaligned ex-dividend dates resulting from the Company’s dual listing, Nasdaq has informed the Company that it will temporarily halt trading in Logitech shares on its platform on September 17, 2015 from the start of the trading session on the Nasdaq market until following the close of the trading session on the SIX Swiss Exchange at 11:30 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. Information regarding the pending dividend can be found on the Dividend page of the Logitech Investor Relations site within the Company’s corporate website.
