Paris, France – June 27, 2024
Viridien (the “Company”)
announces the implementation of the reverse share split on the
basis of 1 new share of €1.00 nominal value for 100 old shares of
€0.01 nominal value (the “Reverse Share
Split”).
Pursuant to a delegation from the Combined
General Meeting of shareholders of May 15, 2024, and a
sub-delegation from the Board of Directors held on the same day,
the Company's Chief Executive Officer has decided to implement this
Reverse Share Split under the following main terms and
conditions:
- Start of the
Reverse Share Split: July 1, 2024
- Exchange ratio:
1 new share with a nominal value of €1.00 to be issued against 100
old shares with a nominal value of €0.01
- Suspension of
the exercise of securities: the exercise of securities giving
access to the share capital of the Company will be suspended from
June 25, 2024 to August 5, 2024 (inclusive)
- Number of old
shares subject to the Reverse Share Split: 716,146,563 shares with
a nominal value of €0.01 each
- ISIN code of old
shares: FR0013181864
- Number of new
shares resulting from the Reverse Share Split: 7,161,465 shares
with a nominal value of €1.00 each
- Reverse Share
Split period: from July 1, 2024 to July 30, 2024 (inclusive) (i.e.
30 days)
- Reverse Share
Split effective date: July 31, 2024
- ISIN code of new
shares: FR001400PVN6
The Reverse Share Split is a purely technical
exchange transaction with no direct impact on the total value of
the Company’s shares held by each shareholder. In practice, each
shareholder will automatically receive 1 new share (with a nominal
value of €1.00) for each block of 100 old shares (with a nominal
value of €0.01) from her/his financial intermediary.
Shareholders who hold a total number of shares
that is an exact multiple of 100 will need to take no action.
Shareholders whose total number of old shares is not an exact
multiple of 100 must address their fractional shares by either
purchasing or selling directly on the market the number of old
shares needed to obtain a multiple of 100 until July 30, 2024,
inclusive.
The old shares not presented for the Reverse
Share Split will be delisted at the end of the Reverse Share Split
period.
Pursuant to Articles L.228-6-1 and R.228-12 of
the French Commercial Code, at the end of a 30-day period starting
July 1, 2024, any new shares corresponding to fractional shares
that could not be individually allocated will be sold on the stock
market by the account holders, and the proceeds of the sale will
then be allocated in proportion to the fractional shares of the
holders of these shares.
The initial and additional notices relating to
the Reverse Share Split were published respectively on June 14 and
June 26, 2024 in the Bulletin des Annonces Légales Obligatoires
(https://www.journal-officiel.gouv.fr/pages/balo/).
All transactions relating to this Reverse Share Split will be
handled by Uptevia, 90-110 Esplanade du Général de Gaulle, 92931
Paris La Défense Cedex.
