Vivendi Will Appeal U.S. Court Ruling

In Liberty Media Lawsuit

Vivendi announced today that a New York court confirmed a €765 million jury verdict rendered against Vivendi on June 25, 2012 in a lawsuit filed by Liberty Media Corporation.

The Court awarded prejudgment interest at the low rate of a one-year U.S. Treasury Department bill, as requested by Vivendi.

Vivendi strongly believes that it did no wrong and intends to pursue its appeal to the fullest extent possible.
