Press release Paris, January 13, 2021
Europcar Mobility Group (the "Company") filed an Amendment to the 2019 Universal Registration Document filed with the Autorité des marchés financiers ("AMF") on 12 January 2021 under number D.20-0448-A01.
Europcar Mobility Group also announces that, on 12 January 2021, the AMF granted visa number 21-011 to the prospectus (the "Prospectus") made available to the public in connection with:
assuming the approval of the proposed reduction in the par value of the Company's shares, which will be submitted for shareholders' approval at the shareholders' meeting to be held on 20 January 2021.

The completion of the aforementioned transactions is part of the draft accelerated financial safeguard plan approved by the Company's committee of banks and financial institutions and the general meeting of bondholders on 7 January 2021 and to be reviewed by the Paris Commercial Court on 25 January 2021, according to the indicative timetable, and approved on 1st February 2021, and remains subject to:
It is also contemplated to launch a capital increase with preferential subscription right (the "Capital Increase with Preferential Subscription Right"), following the extraordinary general meeting of the Company to be held on 20 January 2021, which will be presented in a separate prospectus to be approved by the AMF, according to the indicative timetable, on 1st February 2021.
The settlement-deliveries of the shares issued from the Reserved Capital Increases and the Capital Increase with Preferential Subscription Right must occur simultaneously, no later than 31 March 2021 in accordance with the safeguard plan in such a way that the New Shares issued from the Reserved Capital Increases will not give the right to participate to the Capital Increase with Preferential Subscription Right, and all of the Warrants will only be exercisable as from and subject to the completion of the aforementioned settlement-deliveries.
The issuances provided for in the draft accelerated financial safeguard plan constitute an indivisible whole, such that if one of them could not be completed, none of them will be completed.
Copies of the Prospectus, comprising of (i) the Company's 2019 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on 6 May 2020 under number D.20-0448, (ii) the Amendment to the 2019 Universal Registration Document filed with the AMF on 12 January 2021 under number D.20-0448-A01, (iii) the securities note (including the summary of the Prospectus), having received approval number 21-011 on 12 January 2021, and (iv) the summary of the Prospectus (attached to this press release) are available free of charge at Europcar Mobility Group's registered office, – 13 Ter Boulevard Berthier – 75017 – Paris, on the Company's website (www.europcar-mobility-group.com) as well as on the AMF website (www.amf-france.org).

The Company appointed on a voluntary basis the firm Finexsi, located at 14 rue Bassano, 75116 Paris, and represented by Mr. Olivier Peronnet and Mr. Lucas Robin, as independent expert, in accordance with Article 261-3 of the AMF's General Regulations, in order to give an opinion on the fairness of the terms and conditions of the Company's restructuring from the perspective of the current shareholders.
The conclusion of this opinion is reproduced below:
"In conclusion, for the shareholders, the implementation of this Restructuring makes it possible to maintain the Company as a going concern, by cleaning up its financial structure and by financing, through the injection of new money, the estimated operating losses for the coming fiscal years and future investments. The Restructuring also enables the Company to restore value in comparison with the current situation.
Therefore, in the context of the Company's current financial difficulties, we consider that, as of the date of this report, the terms and conditions of the Transaction are fair from a financial point of view for the shareholders"
This independent expert's report is reproduced in extenso as Appendix 1 to the aforementioned securities note and is also available on the Company's website (www.europcar-mobility-group.com).
For the purposes of negotiating the proposed financial restructuring (as more fully described in Chapter 1 "Presentation of the Financial Restructuring" of the Amendment to the Universal Registration Document, the "Amendment"), the Company has prepared, and communicated in September 2020 to certain of its creditors subject to confidentiality undertakings, a "Connect" business plan to identify new money needs and the outlook for certain Group financial aggregates for the years 2021, 2022 and 2023, extracted from the business plan.
These elements were published in the Company's press release date 26 November 2020 (for more information, the reader is invited to refer to such press release) and are presented in the Amendment for the purpose of restoring the equivalence of information.
Some assumptions used in the preparation of this outlook may have changed since the date of their preparation and will continue to change given the situation and uncertainties related to the Covid-19 epidemic at the date of the Amendment. For example, the second wave of the Covid-19 epidemic hit most European countries in October/November 2020, a new lockdown was declared in England and Germany at the beginning of January and the availability of vaccines has accelerated in some European countries. As previously indicated in its press release dated 26 November 2020, the latest events related to the Covid-19 epidemic and the still uncertain developments in its main territories do not allow the Company to measure the impact on its business at the date of the Amendment and therefore to formulate a guidance for the Group for 2021. These elements should not be considered as profit forecasts or profit estimates within the meaning of Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/980 of the Commission of 14 March 2019.
In this context of uncertainty, the Company considers that the developments and changes that have occurred since the preparation of this outlook in September 2020 do not affect the overall balance of the Safeguard Plan or the Group's ability to meet its debt obligations following the implementation of the Safeguard Plan, bearing in mind that the outlook put forward for 2023 cannot prejudge the Group's actual future performance.
