Final results of the Liquidity Period of the Warrants

Parrot reminds that in the context of its Share Capital Increase of an aggregate amount of €298,779,726, the Prospectus of which has been approved number 15-590 by the Autorité des marchés financiers (the "AMF") on November 19, 2015, Parrot has issued 17,575,278 Class 1 Warrants and 17,575,278 Class 2 Warrants. The issuance of the Warrants will allow shareholders to share in the future development of the Company, and also enables Managers to participate in such development through the commitment of Horizon (a company controlled by Mr. Henri Seydoux) to sell to Managers up to 20 % of the Warrants that it holds upon completion of this transaction.

During the Liquidity Period of the Warrants, which was of 20 calendar days from December 16, 2015 to January 4, 2016 (inclusive), 2,287,036 Class 1 Warrants and 2,287,036 Class 2 Warrants have been sold to Horizon (i.e., a total of 4,574,072 Warrants), at a price of €0.48 per Warrant.

As a result, at the end of the Liquidity Period of the Warrants, Horizon holds 13,637,943 Class 1 Warrants and 13,637,943 Class 2 Warrants, i.e., a total of 27,275,886 Warrants representing 77.60% of the total number of Warrants issued.

(1) It is reminded that during the subscription period of the Share Capital Increase, running from December 23, 2015 to December 4, 2015 (inclusive), commitments were made to sell to Horizon 5 865 266 Class 1 Warrants and 5 865 266 Class 2 Warrants. These transactions were completed, at a price of €0.48 per Warrant, on December 15, 2015, simultaneously with the settlement of the Share Capital Increase.

(2) It is reminded that Horizon has undertaken to sell to Managers up to 20 % of the Warrants that it holds (i.e., 5,455,177 Warrants to be sold).

It is also reminded that:

the Warrants are non-transferrable and therefore non-tradable until December 15, 2020 (inclusive), subject to the exceptions provided in the Prospectus relating to the Share Capital Increase, including notably the right of any holder of Warrants to transfer part or all of its Class 1 Warrants and/or Class 2 Warrants to employees, officers or directors of the Company and/or of its current or future subsidiaries (the "Managers") following the publication by the Company of a reference value of the Class 1 Warrants and of the Class 2 Warrants during the 10 calendar day period after the publication by the Company of its press release relating to its annual or half-year financial results, as the case may be; such sales may occur, under certain conditions, within 60 calendar days after the publication of these reference values, and in any event no later than December 15, 2020 (as a matter of fact, the Warrants will become transferable and exercisable as from December 16, 2020);

  • as from December 16, 2020 and until December 15, 2022 (inclusive): (1) the Warrants holders will be entitled to obtain new shares of the Company by exercising such Warrants; 24 Class 1 Warrants carry the right to subscribe for 2 new shares, at a price of €32.66 per share, and 28 Class 2 Warrants carry the right to subscribe for 3 new shares, at a price of €42.34 per share; Warrants not exercised during this period will become void and will lose all value; and (2) the Class 1 Warrants and the Class 2 Warrants will be listed separately from the Company's ordinary shares, namely on a separate trading line under the ISIN code FR0013054269 for the Class 1 Warrants and on another trading line under the ISIN code FR0013054335 for the Class 2 Warrants; and
  • the Company's shares resulting from the exercise of the Warrants (that represent a potential maximum dilution of 11.1% of the share capital after the Share Capital Increase) will be ordinary shares of the same class as the existing shares of the Company. They will carry the same rights, including, with effect from their issue, to all distributions decided by the Company as from that date. These shares will be subject to periodical requests for admission to trading on the regulated market of Euronext in Paris on the same trading line as the existing shares of the Company and under the same ISIN code FR0004038263.

The prospectus filed with the Autorité des marchés financiers (the "AMF") under visa number 15-590 dated November 19, 2015 (the "Prospectus"), consists of (i) Parrot's reference document filed with the AMF on April 30, 2015 under number D.15-0468 (the "Registration Document"), (ii) Parrot's update of the Registration Document filed on November 13, 2015 under number D.15-0468-A01 (the "Update"), (iii) a securities note and, (iv) a summary of the Prospectus (included in the securities note and set out in appendices).

Before making any investment decision, investors (including any holder of Warrants) are invited to carefully review the risk factors described in Section IV (Risk factors) of the Reference Document, Section III (Risk factors) of the Update and Section II (Risk factors) of the securities note.

In addition, other risks not yet identified, or not currently considered as material by the Group, could have the same adverse effect.
