The Reverse Share Split will result in the allocation of one (1) new ordinary share to be issued with a par value of ten (10.00) euros (the "New Shares") for one thousand (1,000) existing ordinary shares with a par value of one euro cent (0.01) each (the "Existing Shares"), and the division by one thousand (1,000) of the number of outstanding shares of the Company's share capital as of today, i.e. a total of 159,191,703,111 shares with a par value of one euro cent (0.01) each.

After this date, any shares that could not be allocated individually and corresponding to fractional shares will be sold in accordance with the terms and conditions set out in Article R. 228-12 of the French Commercial Code and in accordance with market practice. Existing shares that have not been consolidated will be delisted at the end of the Reverse Share Split period.

At the end of the Reverse Share Split period, shares that have not been consolidated will lose their voting rights and will no longer be included in the calculation of the quorum, and their rights to future dividends will be suspended.
  • Centralization: all transactions relating to the Reverse Share Split will be carried out by Société Générale Securities Services, 32 rue du Champ de Tir, CS 30812, 44308 Nantes Cedex 3, appointed as agent for the centralization of the Reverse Share Split.

  • Suspension of the eligibility of the Existing Shares for the deferred settlement service: until the close of trading on February 26th, 2024, the Existing Shares will remain eligible for the deferred settlement service (the "DSS") and may therefore continue to be subject to deferred settlement.
