certain information
Schiphol, The Netherlands – 6 August 2020. In
response to market rumors, GrandVision NV (Euronext: GVNV) confirms
that EssilorLuxottica SA (Euronext: EL) has taken measures to
secure certain information stored on servers of GrandVision in
connection with the summary proceedings previously initiated by
EssilorLuxottica regarding GrandVision's actions to mitigate the
impact of COVID-19 on its business.
GrandVision has complied with this process to secure information,
which is handled by an independent third party. A back-up of this
information will be held by this independent third party until
there is a ruling in the summary proceedings on whether
EssilorLuxottica should be granted access to this information. This
information remains the proprietary information of GrandVision and
neither EssilorLuxottica nor any other third party will have access
to this information.
These measures to secure certain information stored on servers of

EssilorLuxottica's claims and has full confidence that these claims
will be rejected in court.
