LEGAL FRAMEWORK

At their General Meeting on 26 April 2018, the shareholders authorised the Company to buy back its shares for the sole purpose of ensuring their liquidity or secondary market activity. Thebuybackprogramme is limited to 1%of theCompany’s capital, based on available reserves. This programme is designed toensure anactive secondarymarket via a liquidity contract that complieswith theAMAFI (Association française desmarchés financiers) Code of Conduct, approved by the regulatory authorities. The buyback programme meets the following requirements: The total number of shares acquired through the programme may not exceed 1% of the Company’s capital. As a guide, as of 31 December 2018, this percentage corresponded to 365,123 shares. The maximum purchase price per share may not exceed €20.00 (excluding acquisition costs). As a result, based on the example above, the maximum amount that can be paid by the Company to buy back its own shares is €7,302,460. The share purchases may be carried out by anymeans, including by acquiring blocks of shares and at times determined by the Management Company. The Management Company may not, without prior authorisation from shareholders, use this authorisation during a tender offer initiated by a third party involving the Company’s securities until the end of the tender offer period. The Company does not intend to use options or derivative instruments. This authorisation was granted for a period of 18 months. The buyback programme is funded using the Company’s existing cash resources.
