session, without the physical presence of shareholders or other
persons entitled to attend, in accordance with Article 4 of French
ordinance No. 2020-321 of March 25,

exercise their rights as shareholders before the holding of the
Combined Shareholders Meeting, either by voting by mail or by being
represented by the Chairman of the Combined Shareholders Meeting.
Exceptionally, we urge our shareholders not to give proxy to a
third party as the latter will not be able to attend the Combined
Shareholders Meeting, and to favor the vote by email or by giving
proxy to the Chairman of the Combined Shareholders Meeting.
To that end, holders of our Ordinary Shares can request a voting
