Related Entities may be granted under the terms of this Addendum as follows: 
  

	1.	Definitions: 

 Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as set
forth in the Plan and in the Option Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan, this Addendum and the Option Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan shall prevail except for the following additional
terms that shall be defined as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	Grant Date: the term “Grant Date” shall be the date on which the Board or the Committee (i) designates the French Participant(s), (ii) sets up the Exercise Price of the options, and (iii) specifies the terms
and conditions of the options.

	2.	Specific conditions laid down under this Addendum: 

  

	1)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, options granted to any Participant who is a consultant, an “Administrateur,” or a member of the “Conseil de Surveillance,” as these terms are defined
in French Corporate law, and who does not have a work contract with the Company or its Related Companies will be deemed to have not been granted an option pursuant to this Addendum. 


 

	2)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the number of options offered through the Plan cannot exceed one third of the capital of the Company. This limit is reduced to 10% of the company capital if the options
are granted over treasury shares. 









	3)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no option can be granted to a French Participant who holds directly or indirectly more than ten percent (10%) of the Company’s share capital. 


 

	4)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any option with an Exercise Price on the Grant Date of the option that is less than 80% of the average of the market value of the underlying share during the twenty (20)
trading days (using opening quotation) preceding the Grant Date shall be deemed to have not been granted under this Addendum. In addition, with respect to options to purchase existing shares, any option with an Exercise Price that is less than 80%
of the average price paid by the Company to buy back the Shares it holds as at Grant Date shall be deemed to have not been granted under this Addendum.

Company, to the Exercise Price of an outstanding and unexercised option previously issued under this Addendum, to the current Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares shall be deemed to not have been an option granted under this Addendum.


  

	9)	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in the event of the death of a French Participant, the heirs of such French Participant shall have a six (6)-month period from the date of such French Participant’s
death, to exercise all or part of the options held by such French Participant on the day of his death regardless of whether or not they are vested. As a consequence, all the options held by such French Participant which have not yet been exercised
