If approved, Luxottica Group will pay the dividend to all holders of ordinary shares of record on May 16, 2008, and to all holders of ADSs of record on May 21, 2008. In order to be a ADS holder of record on May 21, 2008 and thus be entitled to such dividend, you must purchase the ADSs on or before May 16, 2008. The ordinary shares listed on the Milan Stock Exchange, and the ADSs listed on the New York Stock Exchange, will be traded ex-dividend on May 19, 2008.

The dividend will be paid on May 22, 2008, in Euro, by Monte Titoli S.p.A., authorized intermediary, to all ordinary shares’ depository banks. For the holders of ADSs, the dividend will be paid to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as depositary of the ordinary shares and the issuer of the ADSs, through Deutsche Bank S.p.A., as custodian under the Deposit Agreement.
