Employee savings plan

A Group company savings plan (PEE) was introduced by Neopost S.A. in September 1998. Employees of Neopost S.A. or French companies related to it as defined in article L. 225-180 of the French commercial code, are eligible to join the Neopost group company savings plan, subject to a minimum of six months of service in the company. A collective pension saving scheme (PERCO) was introduced in Neopost S.A. and the Group’s French companies, open to employees that have a minimum of three months of service in the Company. A collective employee shareholding fund (FCPE) was created and approved by the Securities and Stock Exchange

Commission, now the AMF, on January 19, 1999. This fund was created to manage the amounts received under the Neopost group company savings plan. The Quadient FCPE mainly invests the amounts received in Quadient shares and the investments are frozen for a period of five years, except in legally-allowed cases of early release. The Neopost S.A. General Meeting of June 28, 2019 granted the Board of directors the powers required to issue, on one or more occasions and over a 26-month period, shares reserved in particular for employees benefitting from the Neopost group company savings plan, subject to a nominal limit of 600,000 euros.
