Regulatory News:

Publicis Groupe (Paris:PUB) regrets that a long-lasting relationship with GM has ended. This Starcom partnership represents less than 0.5% of Publicis Groupe revenue on a full-year basis. We're proud of the insight and high level of professionalism that Starcom has brought to its work on GM's image over the years, and of the support that we've given to GM through many ups and downs. Starcom will serve GM to the end of June.

Although we regret this development, Starcom is working on a great deal of new business and will continue to grow. Publicis Groupe will serve GM on other fronts.
