Following the delivery by Kinepolis Group NV of own shares to option holders who exercised options in previous years, and taking into account the retention by Kinohold Bis SA of the voting rights associated with the 100 000 shares sold on 6 June 2022 as well as the acquisition of own shares under the share buyback programme, the total number of voting rights held in Kinepolis Group NV by the above-mentioned persons was 13 682 021 shares at the date of 11 August 2023.
