Article 7Change in the share capital

The share capital may be increased, reduced or amortized under the conditions set by law.

Article 8Payment of shares

The shares are issued and paid up under the conditions set by law.

Capital calls and the date on which the corresponding sums must be paid are disclosed to shareholders at least 15 days before the date set for each payment by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, addressed to the shareholders or by a notice in a legal announcements newspaper published where the registered office is located.

The shareholder who does not make the requested additional payments for the shares on their due date is legally and without any other formality liable to the Company for late interest calculated daily from the due date at the legal rate.

The Company has the right, in order to obtain the payment of these amounts, of enforcement and penalties as provided by law.

----

 

			 		

ARTICLE 9Type of Shares

Fully paid-up shares may be held in nominative or bearer form, at the shareholder’s request, subject, nonetheless, to the legal provisions relating to the form of the shares held by certain natural or legal persons. Shares that are not fully paid-up must be held in nominative form..

Shares must be registered in an account in accordance with the terms and conditions provided for by the current legal and regulatory provisions.

Ownership of shares delivered in nominative form results from their being recorded in the share register.

Article 10 Transfer of Shares – Identification of the bearer of shares

10.1Shares are freely transferable by transfer between accounts, in accordance with the current legal and regulatory provisions.

10.2Furthermore, the Company has the right to request, in accordance with current legal and regulatory provisions, at any time and at its own expense, from any authorized body, the name, or corporate name in the case of legal persons, nationality and address of the holders of securities conferring immediate or future voting rights in its own Shareholders' Meetings, as well as the number of securities held by each of them and any restrictions on these securities. 

 

Article 11Rights and Obligations Governing Shares

Shares will be indivisible with respect to the Company.

Multiple holders of undivided interests in shares will be represented at General Meetings by one of them or by a single agent; in the event of disagreement, the agent will be designated by a court of law at the request of the co-owner who acts first.

Each share entitles its holder to one vote at General Meetings of shareholders.

As a result of the reverse share split approved by the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting of 1 June 2016, and until the expiry of a period of two (2) years following the start date for reverse split transactions as set by the reverse share split notice published by the Company in the BALO (Bulletin des Annonces Légales et Obligatoires) pursuant to the resolutions adopted by the Combined Shareholders’ Meeting of 1 June 2016, any shares that are not grouped (former shares with a par value of €0.01 each), will each give the holder the right to one (1) vote and any grouped shares with a par value of €0.08 each, will each give the holder the right to eight (8) votes, such that the number of votes attached to the shares will be proportional to the share of the capital that they represent.

 

The right to vote is held by the usufruct shareholder in Ordinary General Meetings and by the bare owner in Extraordinary General Meetings. Shareholders may, however, agree to allocate voting rights in a different manner at General Meetings, provided that the usufruct shareholder is not deprived of the right to vote on decisions concerning profits; in this case, they must bring their agreement to the Company's attention by registered letter with a notice of receipt sent to the registered office. The Company will be required to respect the above agreement for any General Meeting held at least five days after receipt of the notice of that agreement.

Even deprived of the voting right, the bare-owner of the shares will always have the right to participate in General Meetings.

Each share entitles the holder thereof to a proportionate ownership right in the profits of the Company and in the proceeds after liquidation equal to the pro rata portion of the registered capital represented by such share.

4

			 		

----

 

			 		

Ownership of a share automatically entails compliance with the Company's Bylaws and with resolutions duly adopted by the General Meeting of shareholders.

Whenever it is necessary to own several shares in order to exercise any right, the owners of isolated shares or a number of shares less than the required number may exercise those rights only on the condition that they personally see to the pooling and, possibly, the purchase or sale of the necessary number of shares.

Article 23 Dividends

 

If the financial statements of the period, approved by the General Meeting, show the existence of a distributable profit, the General Meeting shall recognize it in one or more reserve items whose allocation or use it governs, carry it forward or distribute it in the form of dividends.

 

After having recognized the existence of reserves that it has at its disposal, the General Meeting may decide to distribute amounts taken from these reserves. In this case, the decision shall expressly indicate the reserve items from which these distributions shall be taken.  However, the dividends shall be taken in priority from the distributable profits of the financial period.

 

The procedures for paying the dividends shall be set by the General Meeting or otherwise by the Board of Directors. 

 

However, the payment of dividends must be made within a maximum time of nine (9) months after the close of the financial period. 

 

The General Meeting deliberating on the financial statements of the financial period can give to each shareholder, for all or part of the dividend being distributed, the option of payment either in cash or in shares. 

 

Likewise, the Ordinary General Meeting, deliberating in the conditions specified in Article L. 232-12 of the French Commercial Code, can give each shareholder a partial dividend payment and for all or part of the said partial dividend payment, the option of payment either in cash or in shares. 

 

The offer for payment in shares, the price and the conditions for issuing the shares as well as the request for payment in shares and the conditions for carrying out the capital increase are governed by applicable laws and regulations.  

 

When a balance sheet prepared during or at the end of the financial period and certified as compliant by the Statutory Auditor or Auditors shows that the Company, since the close of the previous financial period, after creation of the necessary amortizations and provisions and minus any prior losses as well as the amounts to place in reserves in application of the law or the Bylaws and taking into account the retained earnings, has made a profit, the Board of Directors may decide to distribute partial dividend payments before the approval of the financial statements of the period and set the amount and the date of the allocation. The amount of these partial payments cannot exceed the amount of the profit defined in this sub-paragraph.  In this case, the Board of Directors cannot make use of the option described in the sub-paragraphs above.
