Exhibit 10.1

 

Summary of BSA Plans

 

Share warrants (bons de souscription d’actions), or BSAs, entitle a holder to exercise the warrant for the underlying vested shares at an exercise price per share determined by our board of directors and at least equal to the fair market value of an ordinary share on the date of grant. In addition to any exercise price payable by a holder upon the exercise of any share warrant, share warrants need to be subscribed for at a price which is determined by the board of directors at the time of the grant.

 

Administration. Pursuant to delegations granted at our annual meeting, our board of directors determines the recipients, dates of grant and exercise price of share warrants, the number of share warrants to be granted and the terms and conditions of the share warrants, including their exercise period and their vesting period. In its discretion, the board of directors has the authority to extend the exercise period of share warrants post-termination.

 

Underlying shares. The securities to which the share warrants give rights are ordinary shares. Following our stock-split in May 2016, each BSA 2013-1 gives the holder the right to purchase one hundred (100) ordinary shares and each BSA 2017 and each BSA 2018 gives the holder the right to purchase one (1) ordinary share.

 

Allocation. Our BSAs are generally granted to executive officers, directors,  employees or consultants of our company. BSAs may be transferred except for the BSAs 2013-1.

 

Standard terms. The conditions to exercise our BSAs are as follows:

 

(a) The BSAs 2013-1 can be exercised (i) within three days as from the notification by the Company that an agreement has been entered into between one or more shareholders and another party resulting in the change of control of the Company within the meaning of Article L. 233-3-I of the French Commercial Code, as a result of transfer of the Company’s shares or merger by absorption of the Company, or

 

(ii) within ten days following the end of a period of 30 calendar days beginning on the date on which the price of the Company’s shares is fixed as part of an initial public offering of the Company, and the admission of the Company’s shares to a regulated or unregulated market, in France, the European Union or a stock exchange outside of the European Union, or

 

(iii) in the event of the Company’s shares being admitted to trading on a regulated or unregulated market, in France, EU or foreign exchange: (x) if the listing takes place between December 5 and 31 of a year ‘‘N’’, during a period from January 5 to 20 of each calendar year as from the second year following the year ‘‘N’’ in which the listing occurred; (y) if the listing takes place during a period other than the period referred to above: during a period from January 5 to 20 of each calendar year from the date immediately following the calendar year in which the listing took place.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in case of notification by the Company to the holders of BSAs 2013-1 that the shareholders holding more than half of the capital and voting rights have accepted a purchase offer from one or more shareholders or third parties, acting alone or jointly, for all of the shares issued by the Company, the holders shall exercise all of their BSAs 2013-1 within 20 days from such notification failing such lapse.

 

(b) The BSAs 2017 can be exercised in one or several occasions. In the event of a takeover bid or a public exchange offer accepted by the board of directors, each holder shall have thirty (30) days starting from acceptation of such offer to exercise all of their BSAs 2017 or to sell them to the initiator of the takeover bid or the public exchange offer, otherwise the BSAs 2017 that has not been exercised or sold during this period will be null and void (unless the board of directors gives a waiver before the end of such period).

(d) The BSAs 2019 can be exercised in one or several occasions. The BSAs 2019 will be exercisable only if, on June 28, 2020, a consulting agreement is still in force and has not been the subject of a notice of termination between Mr. David Nikodem and/or Sapidus Consulting Group LLC on the one hand and the Company on the other hand.
