<Note> Diluted earnings per share assumes the redemption of all Accenture SCA Class I common shares owned by holders of noncontrolling interests and the exchange of all Accenture Canada Holdings Inc. exchangeable shares for Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares, on a one-for-one basis. The income effect does not take into account "Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests—other," since those shares are not redeemable or exchangeable for Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares. </Note>
</Footnote>
<Footnote>
<NoteId> 2 </NoteId>
<Note> Fiscal 2008 and 2009 diluted weighted average Accenture plc Class A ordinary shares and earnings per share amounts have been restated to reflect the impact of the issuance of additional restricted share units to holders of restricted share units in connection with the payment of cash dividends. </Note>
