(1) Given the dividend distribution features approved at the General Meetings of Shareholders on May 29, 2015, on May 27, 2016 and on May 31, 2017 the number of remaining performance shares was adjusted to take into account the impact of these transactions on the interests of performance share beneficiaries in accordance with article L. 228-99 of the French Commercial Code. Moreover, the number of performance shares has been reduced following the Executive Director’s decision to waive part of his entitlement to performance shares granted under the 2015 and 2016 plans.
The final number of shares ultimately granted to beneficiaries is determined based on a service condition and several performance criteria.
