 Terms and conditions of exercise of BSA 27 

The beneficiaries shall exercise one or more of their BSA 27 by delivering a share subscription form to the Company, either by post or by email; it being

PROTECTING THE HOLDERS OF BSA 27 EQUITY WARRANTS 

Grouping into one legal body 
 In accordance with article
L. 228-103 of the French Commercial code, all BSA 27 holders are grouped for the defense of their common interests into one body constituting a legal entity. The decisions of such group will be adopted
pursuant to general meetings under the conditions of quorum and majority provided by law, it being understood that each BSA 27 shall give the right to one vote. 

 The meetings of BSA 27 holders shall be called to authorize any amendment to these terms and conditions and
to decide on all decisions relating to the terms and conditions of subscription and allocation of the capital securities as determined in the decision of the general meeting having authorized the issuance of BSA 27. 

Legal restrictions and maintenance of the rights of BSA 27 holders 

If the Company (i) issues, in any form whatsoever, new shares with a preferential subscription right reserved for its shareholders or from the
capitalization of reserves, profits or additional paid-in capital, (ii) distributes reserves or additional paid-in capital, (iii) changes the distribution of
its profits by creating preference shares, or (iv) merges with another company or is taken over, the rights of BSA 27 holders shall be maintained on the terms set out in articles L. 228-99 to L. 228-102 of the French Commercial code. 
 In addition, the consent of BSA 27 holders must be obtained under and for
operations provided for by the regulations in force, according to the terms stipulated in said regulations. 
 If authorization is not given by the BSA 27
holders in accordance with the provisions of article L. 228-98 of the French Commercial code, the Company shall not, from the actual issuing of said BSA 27, and more generally of any security giving an
entitlement to shares (i) repay its share capital (ii) modify its profit distribution rules and (iii) modify its form or purpose. 
 In the
event of a reduction in the capital of the Company, prompted by losses, by a reduction either in the nominal amount of the shares or in the number of shares, the rights of BSA 27 holders will be reduced as a result, as if they had exercised their
rights before the date on which the reduction in capital became final, in accordance with article L. 228-98 of the French Commercial code. 

EFFECTS OF EXERCISING BSA 27 EQUITY WARRANTS 

Capital increase corresponding to the exercise of BSA 27 

The capital increase resulting from the exercise of BSA 27 will become final by the sole fact of subscribing for new ordinary shares in compliance with,
carried out in compliance with the exercise procedures defined above. 
 At any time, and no later than one month following the end of each accounting
period, the Management Board of the Company shall record, as applicable, the number and amount of ordinary shares subscribed for and issued during that exercise period, and make all appropriate modifications to the articles of association (involving
in particular the amount of the share capital and the number of shares they represent) and shall be vested with all powers necessary to carry out the resulting formalities. 

Date of record for shares resulting from the exercise of BSA 27 

New shares issued as a result of exercising BSA 27 will be subject to all statutory provisions, will be fungible with the existing shares and will carry full
rights to coupons for the current fiscal year from their issue date, and to dividends from the first day of that fiscal year.
