This press release is an advertisement and not a prospectus within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive, as amended.
For EEA Member States having transposed the Prospectus Directive (each referred to as a "Relevant Member State"), no action has been or will be undertaken to make a public offering of securities that would require the publication of a prospectus in one or more of the Relevant Member States, other than France. Consequently, new or existing shares of the Company may be offered in one or more Relevant Member States, other than France, only to (i) legal entities that are qualified investors within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive; (ii) fewer than 100 or, if the Relevant Member State has transposed the corresponding provisions of Directive 2010/73/EU, 150 natural persons or legal entities (other than qualified investors within the meaning of the Prospectus Directive), as permitted by the Prospectus Directive; or in any other case in which the Company is not required to publish a prospectus in accordance with Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive and/or with the applicable regulations in the Relevant Member State, provided that such offering of new or existing shares of the Company not give rise to an obligation on the part of the Company to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or a supplement to the prospectus in compliance with Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.
For the purposes of this paragraph, the expression "public offering" of new or existing shares of the Company in one or more Relevant Member States means any communication addressed to persons, in any form and through any medium whatsoever, presenting sufficient information on the conditions of the offering and on the new or existing shares of the Company that are the subject of the offering, to enable investors to decide to subscribe for or purchase these new or existing shares of the Company, as this definition has been, where applicable, amended in the Member State in question by any measure intended to transpose the Prospectus Directive in said Member State.
