31 DECEMBER <strong>2010</strong>Share Capital and Share Ownership22.6.7. OWNERSHIP OF SHARE CAPITAL AND VOTING RIGHTSAs of 31 December <strong>2010</strong>, a total of 161,037,340 voting rights wereattached to the 110,660,977 ordinary shares in issue. The differencebetween these two figures is due to the fact that certain registeredshares carry double voting rights (see “Voting rights” on page 225).It also reflects the fact that <strong>Casino</strong> shares held directly or indirectlyby the Company are stripped of voting rights.Taking account of the gain or loss of double voting rights by someshareholders since 1 January 2011 and the number of treasury shares,a total of 160,917,209 voting rights were attached to the 110,536,722voting ordinary shares in issue as of 31 January 2011.<strong>Casino</strong>, Guichard-Perrachon is controlled, directly and indirectly, by Euris.
