Interim Dividend

BBGI SICAV S.A. (the "Company"/"BBGI") is pleased to announce an interim cash dividend for the financial period ended 30 June 2014, as follows:

Dividend per share:                                                                               2.88 pence

Ex-Dividend date:                                                                                10 September 2014

Dividend Record date:                                                                        12 September 2014

Payment date:                                                                                       2 October 2014

Payment of this interim dividend is consistent with the Company's revised target dividend payment of at least 5.76 pence per share p.a. This revised target represents an increase of 4.7% on the previous target dividend payment of 5.5% p.a. by reference to the Issue Price as set out in the Company's prospectus dated 6 December 2011. A scrip alternative will not be available with this particular dividend payment.

Distributions on the ordinary shares are planned to be paid twice a year, normally in respect of the six months to 30 June and 31 December. Subject to market conditions and to conditions as prescribed by Luxembourg law, it is intended that distributions will be paid as annual dividends shortly after the AGM at the end of April and as interim dividends in the autumn of each year.

Note: The distribution guidance above is a target only and not a profit forecast. There can be no assurance that this target will be met or that the Company will make any distributions whatsoever. The times and dates in this announcement are expected times and dates only and are subject to change. Any such changes will be notified to shareholders through a Regulatory Information Service.
