Jacques Blanchard and Gerard Aubert were reappointed for a term of two years expiring at the end of the General Meeting to be held in July 2019 to approve the financial statements for the year then ended. Jean Guitton was reappointed for a term of one year expiring at the end of the General Meeting to be held in 2018 to approve the financial statements for the year then ended. On 1 June 2017, the Board of directors decided to keep the duties of Chairman of the Board of directors separate from those of Chief Executive Officer and to reappoint François de Varenne and Jacques Blanchard as M.R.M.’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer respectively.

These objectives are presented without prejudice to the effective order of use of the authorisation to buy back shares, which would be dependent on needs and opportunities. The maximum number of shares that could be purchased by the Company is capped at 10% of the share capital, adjusted for any potential capital increases or reductions that may take place during the term of the share buyback programme. These share purchases may be made by any means, including via the purchase of blocks of securities, whenever the Board of directors deems it appropriate. The maximum unit price is fixed at €3 per share. In the event of any transactions being carried out on the share capital, in particular share splits, reverse splits and free-share allocations, the number of purchasable shares indicated above would be adjusted accordingly by applying a multiplying factor equal to the ratio between the number of shares comprising the share capital prior to the transaction, and the number after the transaction. The maximum amount that can be invested in the share buyback programme is capped at €13,100,344. As of 31 December 2017, the Company held 35,012 treasury shares.
